“…However the difference in tuber yield with 100% RDF and 50% RDF+50% RDN through FYM was non-significant during next year, attributed to build up of soil fertility due to continuous application of FYM to previous crops. Similar findings were also reported by Kumar et al (2009); Ayyub et al (2011).…”

Field experiments were conducted during rabi / winter (November-March) seasons of 2011-12 and 2012-13 at research farm of Indian Agricultural Research Institute, New Delhi to evaluate the root growth and performance of wheat, chickpea and potato grown in different soybean-based cropping systems with 5 nutrient management practices. The results revealed that root growth in terms of root length, root volume and root dry weight of wheat and chickpea were observed significantly maximum where 50% RDN was substituted with FYM along with 50% RDF. Whereas, all the root parameters of potato were higher with the fertilization of 100% RDF. All the yield parameters and yields of wheat in soybean-wheat-fallow and soybean-wheat-mungbean cropping system did not differ significantly. All the yield parameters viz., effective tillers m-2 , length of spike-1 , grains spike and 1000-grain weight as well grain and stover yields of wheat were highest with the application of 100% RDF during both the years. Similarly, the maximum values of yield attributes and tuber and haulms yields of potato were recorded with the 100% RDF during both the years. However, no significant variation among all sources of nutrient was noticed during 2011-12 and among 100% RDF and substitution of 50% RDN through FYM during 2012-13 in both the crops. Whereas, significantly maximum yield contributing parameters and grain and stover yields of chickpea were found in the treatment receiving 50% RDF+50% RDN through FYM followed by 25% RDF+50% RDN through FYM+ biofertilizers during both the years.

“…Interaction of potassium with other nutrients compared to potatoes a) With organic sources Ayyub et al (2011), studied the agronomic response of potato crops to different potash sources at the Faisalabad Agricultural University. Parameters such as days before emergence, percentage of total emergence, and stem number were significantly affected by potassium sulfate, and the performance parameters were significantly higher by the combination of ¼ Muriate of potash and ¾ FYM.…”

Potato ranks one of the most important food crops after rice, wheat, and other field crops. A healthy potato crop removes about 1.7 to 2.3 quintals of potassium ha-1, illustrating that the potassium requirement for potatoes is much higher than that of grains. Being a shallow root crop, the effectiveness of using potassium fertilizers on potatoes varies from 50 to 60 percent. Potassium nutrition plays an important role in increasing the potato yield, either due to the formation of large tubers or the increase in the number of tubers per plant. Among the integrated nutrient management in potatoes, farmyard manure improves the absorption and availability of potassium for potato plants. Potassium protects against frost and drought stress in plants and reduces the incidence of diseases or pests. Potassium availability also decreases the concentration of reducing sugar and improves the colour and quality of potato chips. Potassium sulfate improves potato quality better than sources of potassium chloride.

“…On the other hand the dependence on inorganic fertilizer can be reduced in the days with the integrated use of organic and inorganic in proper combination. Application of FYM to soil have practiced for many centuries and its application to soil have increase crop yield, improved soil properties, increased soil fertility, increased soil organic matter, increased microbial activities and improved soil structure for sustainable agriculture" [3]. "FYM is good source of major plant nutrients like 0.5% nitrogen, 0.2% phosphorus and 0.5% potash.…”

The experiment was carried out in a Randomized Block Design treatments 8 viz. T1 Control,T2 FYM @ 30 t/ha) + biofertilizer (PSB), T3 poultry manure @ 5 t/ha + biofertilizer (PSB),T4 vermicompost @ 7.5 t/ha + biofertilizer (PSB), T5 FYM @ 10 t/ha + poultry manure @ 1.7 t/ha +vermicompost 2.7 t/ha + biofertilizer (PSB), T6 67% RDF through inorganic sources + 33% RDF through organic sources i.e. FYM + biofertilizer (PSB), T7 33% RDF through inorganic sources + 67% RDF through organic sources i.e. FYM + biofertilizer (PSB) and T8 Farmer practices (through organic). All the treatment combinations were replicated three times. The soil of the experiment field was silty loam in texture and medium in fertility status with the pH values 8.1, organic carbon 0.31%. The available nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium were 140.0, 15.2, and 240 kg ha-1 respectively.
