Greengram productivity enhancement through foliar spray of nutrients

Abstract

A field experiment was conducted during Kharif 2012 and 2013 at AEEC, Lingsugur, UAS, Raichur. Nine treatments were laid out in randomised design with three replications. Among different sources of nutrients, foliar spray of Panchagavya (5 %) at flower initiation recorded significantly higher grain yield of greengram compared to other treatments however, it was at par with foliar of spray of 19:19:19 (1%) in both year and as well in pooled analysis. The significantly lower grain yield was recorded in control plot in both the years.

Effect of Vermicompost, Rock Phosphate, PSB and Different Bio-products on Yield and Economics of Groundnut (Arachis hypogea L.)

“…Application of cow urine (10%) (P 2 ) were recorded significantly higher dry pod yield (35.52 q ha -1 , 35.85 q ha -1 and 35.69 q ha -1 ), kernel yield (25.76 q ha -1 , 26.10 q ha -1 and 25.93 q ha -1 ) and haulm yield (43.10 q ha -1 , 43.39 q ha -1 and 43.25 q ha -1 ) followed by vermi-wash (3%) (P 3 ) and control (P 1 ) in the descending order during both the years of experimentation and in the pooled data. Results of the present investigation corroborate with the findings of Deotale et al, (2008), Patil et al, (2011), Kulkarni et al, (2016) and Sadhukhan et al, (2018).…”

“…In case of economics (Table 2 and 3 and in the pooled data respectively, was recorded under cow urine (10%) (P 2 ) and it was followed by vermi-wash (3%) (P 3 ) and control (P 1 ), respectively. These findings are in close agreement with Jadhav and , Kulkarni et al, (2016), Shwetha et al, (2018) and Verma et al, (2018).…”

Influence of soil application of organic manures and foliar spray of organic nutrients on resultant seed quality in Kabuli chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) varieties

“…The increase in seedling vigour index and seedling dry weight was due to better seed germination and seedling length (root + shoot) and also due to enhanced lipid utilization through glyoxylate cycle, a primitive pathway leading to faster growth and development of seedling to reach autotrophic stage well in advance of others and enabling them to produce relatively more quantity of dry matter (Jayaraj, 1977). These results were in conformation with the results of Kulkarni (2016) and Shariff et al (2017) in green gram.…”

Effect of Fertilizer Levels and Foliar Nutrition on Growth and Yield of Soybean (Glycine max (L.) Merrill)

“…), net monetary returns (54881 ha ) and benefit cost ratio (2.27) on comparison to the rest of the treatments. These findings are similar to the work of Kulkarni et al [13] and Ullasa et al [9]. It is further proved in this research that the foliar fertilization improves all the growth and yield contributing characters and finally the yield of the crop as they are highly phloem mobile and are translocated to all parts of the plant.…”
