A field experiment was conducted at Regional Research Station, SDAU, Bhachau, Kachchh to study the performance of different modules on yield, uptake and physico-chemical properties of soil after harvest in greengram (Vigna radiata L.) Experiment consisted of five different modules among three were organic modules, one was chemical module and control, under Randomized Block Design. The results of the experiments differed significantly. The significant improvement in yield attributes and yield was recorded with the chemical moduleT 4 . In organic modules T 2 and T 3 recorded the highest growth improvement and yield as compared to control. Modules T 2 and T 3 also recorded the good nutrient content and uptake. Available nutrients in the soil after harvest were best in the organic modules (T 2 and T 3 ) maintained the soil physico-chemical properties by reducing the soil bulk density.
SummaryCluster bean [Cyamopsis tetragonoloba (L.) Taub.] which is locally known as "guara" belongs to the family Fabaceae. It is hardy crop and its cultivation is suitable for rainfed, low fertility soil conditions. A field experiment consisting of five different modules was conducted during Kharif season from 2009-10 to 2014-15 with five quadrates in each module (2m×2m) under Randomized Block Design at Regional Research Station, SDAU, Bhachau, Kachchh to study the effect of different modules on yield and yield attributes of cluster bean grown on light textured soil of Kachchh. Among the five different modules, three were organic modules, one was chemical module and control. The results of the experiments differed significantly. The significant improvement in yield attributes and yield were recorded with the chemical moduleT 4 . Organic modules T 2 recorded the highest growth improvement and yield as compared to control.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
