Yield attributes and nutrient uptake of organic safflower (Carthamus tinctorius L.) in drylands of Maharashtra

Abstract: : A field experiment on 'organic farming' in safflower was conducted at Dry Farming Research Station (DFRS), Solapur for five years (2009-10 to 2013-14) with the objective to explore the possibilities of substituting chemical inputs through organic source and to evaluate its effect on nutrient uptake. Well decomposed farm yard manure, vermicompost, neem seed cake, Azotobacter, Tricoderma and neem seed kernel extract were used as organic inputs. While, urea, SSP, dimethoate and arbendezim were used as syntheti… Show more

“…It can safely be grown during the post rainy season as a potential Rabi crop in rainfed areas. India ranks first in area (41%) and production (29%) of the safflower grown across the world" [2]. "The seed contains 24-36% oil and it is good as sunflower oil having enough amount of linolic acid (78%), which is very useful for reducing blood cholesterol content" [3,4].…”
