“…Similar observations with increased yield parameters were reported by Prakash et al (2013). Increased yield and yield parameters with flyash seed pelleting has already been reported in black gram (Prakash et al, 2012), bhendi (Prakash et al, 2014a), sesame (Prakash et al, 2014b) and rice (Prakash et al, 2014c).…”

Seed pelleting with leaf powders of two botanicals viz., pungam (Pongamia glabra) and prosopis (Prosopis juliflora) was done to study the effect of botanical seed pelleting on seedling quality, gas exchange, growth, yield and resultant seed quality parameters of black gram in the laboratory and field. From the results, it was found that, seeds pelleted with pungam leaf powder @ 150 g kg-1 recorded higher germination percentage (93.00), root length (18.35 cm), shoot length (19.34 cm), dry matter production (0.48 mg seedling-10) and vigour index (3505.10). The yield parameters such as pod length, number of pods plant-1, pod yield plant-1, number of seeds pod-1 and 100 seed weight were also found higher in pungam leaf powder pelleting treatment @ 150 g kg-1. The control recorded the least values in all these growth and yield parameters of black gram.

“…The pungam leaf powder pelleting treatments might have improved the growth of plant with increased vigour and stronger root system which in turn might have helped in getting more soil moisture and nutrients, thus enabling better growth resulting in higher yield (Sai Pradeep Kumar, 2015). Increased yield and yield parameters with flyash seed pelleting has already been reported in black gram (Prakash et al, 2012), bhendi (Prakash et al, 2014a), sesame (Prakash et al, 2014b) and rice (Prakash et al, 2014c).…”

Cluster bean is one of the major legumes cultivated in many parts of the world. However effect of organic seed pelleting in this crops needs more attention nowadays in probem soils like saline soil. Field experiments were carried out with cluster bean cv. Pusa Mausami to study the effect of organic seed pelleting on biometric, biophysical and yield parameters of clusterbean under saline condition. The seeds of cluster bean cv. Pusa Mausami were pelleted with pungam, prosopis, notchi, arappu leaf powders @ 50, 100, 150 and 200 g per kg. From the results, it was found that seed pelleting with pungam leaf powder @ 200 g per kg registered significantly higher values for biometric parameters viz., plant height, number of branches per plant, dry matter production, biophysical parameters viz., photosynthetic rate, transpiration rate, stomatal conductance, intercellular CO2 concentration and yield parameters viz., pod length, number of pods per plant, pod yield per plant, number of seeds per pod, seed yield per plant and hundred seed weight. From the present study, it was concluded that seed pelleting with pungamn leaf powder @ 200 g per kg can be recommended for increased growth and yield parameters in cluster bean under saline conditions.

“…These nutrients present in the fly ash may be helpful in enhancing seed germination, seedling vigour and establishment when applied as seed pelleting material. Even though there are some reports on flyash seed pelleting on few crops viz., black gram (Prakash et al, 2012), bhendi (Prakash et al, 2014a), rice (Prakash et al, 2014b) and sesame (Prakash et al, 2014c), the effect of fly ash seed pelleting on rhizhosphere population is very meagre. Hence, in the present study, an attempt was made to investigate the effect of flyash seed pelleting on rhizhosphere populations in black gram and green gram.…”

Investigations were carried out to study the influence of flyash seed pelleting on microbial populations of bacteria, fungi, actinomycetes, and rhizobium in black gram and green gram. The experimental results revealed that seed pelleting with fly ash seed pelleting @ 250 g with rice gruel as adhesive increased rhizobium population in black gram and fungi and actinomyctes population in green gram by 10 to 15 %. Increased microbial activity will enrich soil microflora and in turn will be helpful in increasing the crop yield.
