Abstract:
A field experiment was carried out at Agronomy Farm, Dr. PDKV, Akola during Rabi season of 2017-18 on clayey soil. The experiment was laid out in factorial randomized block design with nine treatment combinations and four replications. Treatments consist of three nitrogen sources viz., 100% N through urea, 50% N through FYM + 50% N through urea and 50% N through FYM + 50% N through Vermicompost + Biofertilizers and three vegetables viz., Coriander, Fenugreek and Spinach. The growth characters of all vegetables were significantly higher with the application of 50% N through FYM + 50% N through urea followed by 50% N through FYM + 50% N through Vermicompost + Biofertilizers. Maximum green biomass yield of all vegetables was recorded with INM application of 50% N through FYM + 50% N through urea followed by application of 50% N through FYM + 50% N through Vermicompost + Biofertilizers.
