Background: Pearl millet can grow in a variety of environments. Pearl millet is a viable alternative to sorghum in areas where it cannot thrive. When it comes to soil moisture utilisation and heat tolerance, sorghum and maize cannot compete with pearl millet. Objectives: Effects of nitrogen and phosphorus on growth parameters and yield of pearl millet Methods: With the goal of studying the effect of nitrogen and phosphorus on growth and yield of Pearl millet (Pennisetum glaucum L.) Var. ABV - 04 under a Randomized block design with 9 treatments (T1-T9) The experimental results revealed that 120 kg N/ha + 60 kg P/ha produced maximum plant height (214.37), plant dry weight (46.74) and yield parameters ear head length (20.77 cm), number of grains/ear head (1972.0), grain yield (2.68 t/ha), and stover yield (3.77). Conclusion: The combination of 120 kg nitrogen/ha and 60 kg phosphorus/ha proved to be the most advantageous to farmers, resulting in 214.37-cm plant height, 46.74-gm plant dry weight, 1972 grains per ear head, and 2.68 ta grain and 3.26 ta stover yields, respectively.
Background: Groundnuts are immensely rich in potassium, calcium, phosphorus and B vitamins which offers you with a host of health benefits. Groundnuts are a great blend of healthy fats, protein and fibre that curbs your appetite, lowers the risk of heart disease and regulates blood glucose levels. Objectives: Effects of potassium levels and spacing on growth and yield of summer groundnut. Methods: With the goal of studying the effect of potassium and spacing on growth and yield of groundnut under a Randomized block design with 9 treatments (T1-T9) The experimental results revealed that 120 kg N/ha + 60 kg P/ha produced maximum plant height (49.7 cm) No. of Nodules/Plant (106) plant dry weight (22.9) No of pods (19.3) no of kernals (2.7) pod yield (3.62 ta/ha) Halum yield (4.65 ta/ha). Conclusion: The combination of 40 kg potassium and 30x10 proved to be the most advantageous to farmers, resulting in, plant height (49.7 cm) No. of Nodules/Plant(106) plant dry weight (22.9) No of pods (19.3) no of kernals (2.7) pod yield (3.62 ta/ha) Halum yield (4.65 ta/ha) respectively.
Background: Foxtail millet crop has interesting characteristic features i.e., fairly tolerant to drought, and can escape terminal drought because of early maturity. Foxtail millet is comparable to that of super cereals like rice and wheat due to its capacity to withstand drought, adaptable to adverse climatic condition and input management. Objectives: Effect of nitrogen and zinc on yield attributes and economics of foxtail millet. Methods: With the goal of studying the effect of nitrogen and zinc on yield and economics of foxtail millet (Setaria italica) One variety of Foxtail millet i.e., DHFt 109-3 was used with different doses of Nitrogen at 40, 50, 60 kg/ha and Zinc at 10, 15, 20 kg/ha was used. There were 9 treatments each replicated thrice. The result showed that the yield parameters viz, length of Ear (21.19 cm), seed yield (2.11 t/ha), test weight (3.36 g) straw yield (5.48 t/ha), gross return (73,850.00 INR/ha), net return (51,508.00 INR/ha), B:C ratio (2.30) were recorded superior with application of nitrogen at 60 kg/ha along with zinc 20 kg/ha. Conclusion: Maximum Gross returns (73,850.00 INR/ha), Net return (51,508.00 INR/ha), B:C ratio (2.30) was obtained with application of 60 N kg/ha + 20 kg Zn/ha.
Background: Pearl millet can thrive in a wide range of local conditions. In areas where sorghum cannot thrive, pearl millet is a viable alternative. Sorghum and maize can't compete with pearl millet when it comes to soil moisture utilisation and heat tolerance. Objectives: Effects of nitrogen and phosphorus on yield and economics of pearl millet Methods: With the goal of studying the effect of nitrogen and phosphorus on yield and economics of Pearl millet (Pennisetum glaucum L.) Var. ABV - 04 under a Randomized block design with 9 treatments (T1-T The experimental results revealed that 120 kg N/ha + 60 kg P/ha produced ear head length (20.77 cm), number of grains/ear head (1972.0), grain yield (2.68 t/ha), harvest index (41.49 percent).T9 120 kg N/ha + 60 kg P/ha produced greater net returns (95,132.00 INR/ha), gross returns (1,36,544.00 INR/ha), and benefit-to-cost ratios (2.30). Conclusion: 120 kg N/ha + 60 kg P/ha yielded the highest net return (95,132.00INR /ha), gross return (1,36,544.00INR /ha), and benefit: cost ratio than any other combination of nutrition source (2.30).
