Production and Economic Feasibility of Chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) by the Diverse Bioinputs and Soil Nutrients Amendments

Abstract

The study was carried out the Student’s instructional farm of Acharya Narendra Deva University of Agriculture and Technology, Narendra Nagar (Kumarganj) Ayodhya (U.P.) during the Rabi season in 2020-2021. The soil of the experimental area was sandy loam in texture. The experiment was laid out in randomized block design with 11 treatments replicated thrice. The experimental results revealed that significantly maximum growth parameter like plant height (18.01 cm 30 DAS, 27.97 cm 60 DAS & 40.38 cm at harvest) and yield attributes like Pods/Plant (44.0), Seeds/pod (1.6), Test Weight (20.12 g), total grain yield (14.65 qha-1) were noticed under T11 (Soil nutrient amendment as chemical fertilizers@ half potency (10N : 20P : 0K) +Organic Inputs-IV [Organic Inputs I (FYM + Jeevamrit) + Organic Inputs-III (Rhizobium + PSB)] as compared to rest of the treatments and lowest under T1 (Control), Maximum gross return ( Rs. 88795), net return ( Rs. 56312) and B:C ratio (1:1.73) was also recorded with the treatment T11 (Soil nutrient amendment as chemical fertilizers@ half potency (10N : 20P : 0K) +Organic Inputs-IV [Organic Inputs-I (FYM + Jeevamrit) + Organic Inputs-III (Rhizobium + PSB)].

Effect of Phosphorous, Chloropyriphos and Rhizobium Inoculation on Production and Economics of Chickpea (Cicer aretinum L.)

“…It may due to rhizobium which fix atmospheric nitrogen and increased the supply of other nutrients to plants and ultimately increased grain and stover yield of chickpea. These results also confirms the findings of Panigrahi [25], Sharma (2012), Kumar et al [11], Ullah et al [26], Kumar et al [27], Suryavanshi et al [28], Singh et al [29], Patel et al [30] and Yadav et al [31].…”

“…Field experiments were conducted to Studies effect of Phosphorus, Chloropyriphos and Rhizobium inoculants on productivity parameter and economics of chickpea during rabi season of 2020-21 and 2021-22 at students instructional farm, Chandra Shekhar Azad University of Agriculture & Technology, Kanpur. The experiment consists of 18 treatments combinations in factorial randomized block design with three replications consisted of three levels of phosphorous (30,60 and 90 kg ha -1…”

Response of Different Level of Phosphorus, Zinc and Rhizobium Inoculation on Growth Yield Attributes and Yield of Chickpea (Cicer aretinum L.)

“…Similar observations were also reported by Sinha et al[39], Vimla and Natarajan[40], Tiwari et al[41], Yadav et al[42], Bicer[43], Badini et al[44], Pegoraro et al [45], Singh et al[46] and Pal et al[47].The application of different level of Zn considerably enhanced all characters of yield attributes viz., number of pods plant 100 grains grain yield, stover yield and biological yield except for harvest index during the both years of chickpea crop. Similar findings were also reported by Mali et al[48], Yadav et al[49], Valenciano et al[50], Kumari et al[51], Raj et al[52], Singh et al[53] Patel et al[54] and Yadav et al[55]…”
