“…This production gap could be due to several factors among which declining soil fertility is one. Several studies have reported that turmeric is a nutrient exhaustive crop, particularly for nitrogen [1,7]. The high nutrient requirement of turmeric is due to its shallow rooting, prolonged growth period (up to 9 months), and the potential to produce large amounts of dry matter per unit area [6].…”

Soil fertility decline is one of the factors that result in low productivity of turmeric (Curcuma longa, Zingiberaceae Lindl.,) in Ethiopia. An experiment was conducted to determine the effects of N rate and time of application on growth, yield, and quality of turmeric crops in Ethiopia. The trial consisted of five N rates: 0, 46, 69, 92, 115 kg ha−1, and five split application times: full dose at emergence, two times (1/2), three times (1/3), four times (1/4), and five times (1/5) equally split applications, arranged in a split plot design with three replications. Plant heights, tiller number per plant, pseudo-stem girth, mother and finger rhizome numbers and weights, fresh rhizome yield, oleoresin and essential oil contents – all were significantly affected by the interaction effects of N rate and time of application. The three times split application of 115 kg N ha−1 produced higher values of these crop characteristics. This application rate also produced a better yield and quality than did two times of application, the most commonly used practice. Therefore, turmeric producers in southwestern Ethiopia should apply 115 kg N ha−1 in three equally split applications to improve turmeric yield and quality.

“…The plot yield under only inorganic fertilizer NPK 100% recorded projected yields of 28.80 t/ha. Bhoomika et al (2018), Anuradha et al (2018) and Tripathi et al ( 2018) reported identical results. By enhancing the soil aggregates with organic manures, favourable pore geometry was created, increasing soil porosity, and enabling healthy rhizome development beneath the soil.…”

As productivity of turmeric and soil health are reducing day by day due to improper application of chemical fertilizer, so present study was conducted to examine the effect of biofertilizers along with organic and different grades of inorganic nutrients on yield and economics of turmeric var. Suguna. Main objectives of this study were to use multiple sources of nutrients to increase productivity of turmeric rhizome and increase the B:C ratio. 13 treatments combination of nutrient sources like, 100%, 75% & 50% of NPK, 4 organic manures (compost, vermicompost, mustard cake and neem cake) and 3 bio-fertilizers (Nitrogen fixing -, PSB and Azotobacter chroococcum -Bacillus polymixa Potash mobilizer -. Turmeric rhizomes were harvested from the farm and then yield, and economic parameters were Fraturia aurantia) calculated. Treatment combination Vermicompost + NPK (100%) + Biofertilizer significantly superior in clump, primary & secondary rhizome characters, projected yield (38.55 t ha ), cost of production, gross return, net return (350688 Rs ha ) and B:C ratio (1.54). 25% of the full NPK -1 -1 can be replaced by organic sources of nutrients, which will improve soil health and productivity.

Background: The health of the soil is negatively impacted by chemical fertilizer sources and plants are less able to absorb the readily available nutrients. The current study used several nutrition sources to reduce the negative impacts of chemical fertilizers, boost nutrient availability and preserve health. Methods: The present experiment was conducted in a field laboratory during 2017-19. 4 different manures, 3 different bio-fertilizers and graded levels of NPK were applied in the form of 13 treatments. Data on the vegetative development of turmeric plants were collected before harvesting and quality data were obtained after harvesting and some processing. Result: Vermicompost + NPK (100%) + Biofertilizers showed the highest results by considering the leaf number (23.64), tiller number (4.25) and height of plant (191.74 cm). Higher dry recovery (23.56%), oleoresin (13.48%) and curcumin content (6.16%). Alternative sources of nutrients are reducing the dose of chemical fertilizers application as well as improving the vegetative growth and quality of turmeric rhizome. In this way, we can replace 25-50% of chemical fertilizers with organic sources and enhance the soil health for plant growth and production.
