Abstract:
The field experiment took place in the Department of Agriculture's Crop Research Farm, SHUATS, Allahabad, during the Kharif season of 2021. (U.P). The soil in the experimental plot has a sandy loam texture, a pH of 7.1, low organic carbon (0.36 percent), available N (171.48 kg/ha), available P (15.2 kg/ha), and available K (232.5 kg/ha), and is low in organic carbon (0.36 percent). FYM (5t/ha), vermicompost (2.5t/ha), phosphorous (20, 30, and 40kg/ha), and PSB (with PSB) and (without PSB), i.e. (var. SAMRAT). A randomized block design was adopted in the trial, with 12 treatments replicated three times. Maximum plant height (37.11 cm), number of branches (4.66), dry weight of plants (4.59 g / plant), nuts per plant (26.05), seeds per pod (9.08), and test weight were all shown to be significant (43.39 g). The application of FYM (5t/ha) + phosphorus 40 kg/ha + PSB had a substantial impact on seed yield (1.88 t/ha), store yield (3.74 kg/ha), and crop index (33.49 percent). Control yielded the highest crop growth rate (6.90g / m2 / day). RGR, on the other hand, is widely acknowledged as critical. With FYM (5t / ha) + phosphorus 40 kg / ha application in treatment + PSB, the maximum gross return (Rs. 1,78,600 / ha), net return (Rs. 1,32,946 / ha), and BC ratio (2.91) were obtained. As a result, it can be concluded that the application of FYM (5t/ha) + phosphorus 40 kg/ha + PSB is effective.
