 ABSTRACT

The present investigation entitled “Effect of Integrated nutrient management on growth and yield attributes of kharif onion (Allium cepa L.)” was conducted with the objective to understand the better utilization of nutrients for yield and growth at Horticulture farm, S.K.N college of Agriculture, Jobner during kharif season in 2013 which consisted of sixteen treatment combinations with four levels of both organic manures and inorganic fertilizers. The application of FYM @ 5 t/ha + vermicompost @ 2.5 t/ha + Bio-fertilizers as organic source and NPK +S + Zn (100:50:100:20:10 kg/ ha) as the inorganic source wrer found significantly superior over other treatments comparable with bulb yield (q ha-1) and net returns from kharif onion (N-53).

Key words: Kharif onion, Organic And Inorganic Fertilizers, Bio-fertilizers, Growth, Yield Parameters.
