ABSTRACT
An experiment was conducted during winter season of 2013-14 at Zonal Agricultural and Horticultural Research Station Mudigere, Chikmagalur to assess the influence of integrated nutrient management on nutrient uptake of kasuri methi (Trigonella corniculata L.) under hill zone of Karnataka. Significantly higher Nitrogen content in herb (1.53%), straw (1.26%), seed (3.41 %) and total uptake of (70.92 kg/ha) and Phosphorous content in herb (0.58%), straw (0.38 %) and seed (0.63 %) and total uptake (21.64 kg/ha) were recorded in the treatment supplied with 75% N + RD PK + FYM (7.5 t ha-1) + Rhizobium (1.5t ha-1) + Azospirillum (5 kg ha-1) + PSB (5 kg ha-1) and maximum Potash content in herb (0.58%), straw (0.90 %) and seed (0.45 %) and total uptake (31.82 kg/ha) were recorded in the same treatment. Which was followed by the treatment supplied with 50% N+ RD PK + FYM (7.5 t ha-1) + Rhizobium (1.5 kg ha-1) + Azospirillum (5 kg ha-1) + PSB (5 kg ha-1). It was observed that integrated nutrient management significantly helped to improve uptake of nutrients by plant and maintains the soil health status and it is eco friendly.
