Abstract:
A field experiment was conducted during Kharif 2021 at Crop Research Farm, Department of Agronomy, SHUATS, Prayagraj (U.P). The soil of experimental plot was sandy loam in texture, nearly neutral in soil reaction (pH 7.1), low in organic carbon (0.36%), available N (171.48 kg/ha), available P (15.2 kg/ha) and available K (232.5 kg/ha). The experiment was laid out in Randomized Block Design with nine treatments each replicated thrice on the basis of one year experimentation. The treatments which are T1: Water + Sulphur 20Kg/ ha, T2: Water + Sulphur 30Kg/ ha, T3: Water + Sulphur 40Kg/ ha, T4: Panchagavya – 3% + Sulphur 20Kg/ ha, T5: 5 Panchagavya – 3% + Sulphur 30Kg/ ha, T6: Panchagavya – 3% + Sulphur 40Kg/ ha, T7: Vermiwash 10% + Sulphur 20Kg/ ha, T8: Vermiwash 10% + Sulphur 30Kg/ ha, T9: Vermiwash 10% + Sulphur 40Kg/ ha are used. The results showed that application of Panchagavya – 3% + Sulphur 40 Kg/ha was recorded significantly higher plant height (42.05 cm), Plant dry weight (19.38 g/plant), pods/plant (26.43), kernals/pod (2.18), Test weight (37.33 g), Seed yield (2.22 t/ha), Haulm yield (5.65 t/ha), Harvest index (21.99%) as compared to other treatments.
