Long Term Effect of Chemical Fertilizer in Rice-Wheat Cropping System under Irrigated Condition of Kymore Satpura Agro Climatic Zone

Abstract

Application of inadequate and unbalanced quantity of fertilizer to these crops not only results low crop yield but also deteriorates the soil properties (Sharma et al., 2003). Degradation in soil health has emerged as a major factor responsible for stagnation in agriculture production. The maintenance of

Phosphorus Requirement of Timely Sown Irrigated Wheat

“…It is because of fact the P improved the physical conditions of soil by witch superior attributing characters like number of productive tillers /m 2 , number of grains/ spike grain yield / spike and test weight were increased at higher level of phosphorus. Similar finding were also reported by Kurmvanshi et al, (2018) and Suryawanshi 2020. Similar trend in straw yield was also reported.…”

“…Application of phosphorus @ 90 kg P 2 O 5 /ha gave significantly higher test weight (45.93 g/ 1000 grain) as compared to no phosphorus applications. It may be due to varietal differences in response to yield attributing characters Kurmvanshi et al, 2018 andSuryawanshi (2020) have also reported positive response of phosphorus at 80 kg P 2 O 5 /ha on yield contributing characters of wheat while varietal differences in yield attributing characters were reported by Surywanshi (2020)…”
