“…Fixation of atmospheric N and subsequent reduction in fertilizer N requirement under Rhizobium inoculation substantially improved the benefit: cost ratio as was evident in our experiment. Similar findings were reported by Kundu et al (2023), where higher net returns were recorded with increasing application rate of fertilizer and biofertilizers. Higher crop growth and productivity with better uptake of nutrients resulted in higher return and benefit: cost ratio.…”

A field experiment was conducted at research farm of Bidhan Chandra Krishi Viswavidyalaya, Mohanpur, West Bengal, during 3 consecutive summer seasons of 2017, 2018 and 2019, to find out the influence of varietal differences and nutrient-management practices on crop productivity, soil fertility and economics in groundnut (Arachis hypogaea L.). The experiment was laid out in a split-plot design with 3 replications. Higher crop growth and yield were recorded under variety ‘TAG 24’; and 125% recommended dose of fertilizer (RDF) with Rhizobium inoculation resulted higher growth, yield attributes and yield of groundnut followed by 100% RDF + Rhizobium inoculation. The nutrient (N, P and K) availability in soil after harvesting was also higher under ‘TAG 24’ variety with 125% RDF + Rhizobium. However, interaction effect of crop variety and fertilizer treatment was found insignificant. The pooled analysis of economics revealed that, higher benefit: cost ratio (2.73) was obtained under ‘TAG 24’ in combination with 100% RDF+ Rhizobium.

“…Biofertilizers play an important role in crop production, enhancing nutrient-supply capacity of the system (Sen et al, 2021;Singh et al, 2021). Studies have reported increased oil and protein content with biofertilizer application (Kundu et al, 2023).…”
