Abstract:
A field experiment was conducted during Rabi season of 2019-20 and 2020-21 at Research Farm, College of Agriculture, Rajmata Vijayaraje Scindia Krishi Vishwavidyalaya, Gwalior (M. P.). The experiment consisted fifteen treatments replicated thrice using the wheat variety ‘RVW-4106’, The results revealed that the treatment of T15: 100% RDF (N:P:K 120:60:40 kg ha-1) significantly higher N, P and K uptake by grain and N and K uptake by straw (kg ha-1). Whereas, zero budget natural farming significantly highest N, P and K uptake by grain and straw was obtained under treatment of T12: Beejamrutha + Jeevamrutha + Panchgavya (1000 ml + 500 l + 15 lit. ha-1), which, was significantly superior to others, but it was statistically at par with T13: Beejamrutha + Panchgavya + Ghanajeevamrutha (1000 ml + 15 lit. + 25 kg ha-1), T14: Ghanajeevamrutha + Jeevamrutha + Beejamrutha (25 kg + 500 l + 1000 ml ha-1), T9: Jeevamrutha + Panchgavya (500 l + 15 lit. ha-1), T7: Beejamrutha + Panchgavya (1000 ml + 15 lit. ha-1), T6: Beejamrutha + Jeevamrutha (1000 ml + 500 l ha-1), T11: Panchgavya + Ghanajeevamrutha (15 lit. + 25 kg ha-1) and T10: Jeevamrutha + Ghanajeevamrutha (500 l + 25 kg ha-1). The lowest N, P and K uptake by grain and straw was observed under T1: Control. No significant effect of different zero budget natural farming on N, P and K content (%) grain and straw, available nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium (kg ha-1) in soil after harvests.
