 ABSTRACT

A field experiment was conducted during the rabi season of 2013-14 and 2014-15 on sandy clay loam soil to evaluate the effect of nutrient management in wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) at Aisah (Ambah) Tehsil, district Morena, on Rajmata Vijayaraje Scindia Krishi Vishwa Vidyalaya farm situated in the ravines of Chambal river. The crop cultivar MP-1203 of wheat was grown with 120:60:40 kg ha-1 (NPK) recommended dose of fertilizers under nutrient management practices viz., seven treatments Farmer Practices (T1), 100% RDF (T2), 150% RDF (T3), STCR Based NPK Application (T4), 50% RDF+5 tone FYM + PSB+ all deficient  Micro Nutrient (T5), 75% RDF+2.5 ton FYM/ha+ PSB+ ZnSO4@ 25 kg ha-1 (T6), Organics Practices FYM @10tone ha-1+PSB+Azotobactor (T7), in randomized block design, replicated three times.  Significantly higher values of N, P and K content at 45 DAS, 70 DAS, 90 DAS, harvest stage, seed and Straw, was registered with application of 75% RDF+2.5 ton FYM ha-1+PSB+ZnSO4@ 25 kg ha-1 (T6). However, it was statistically at par with T3 and they were significantly superior over remaining fertility treatments. The total Nitrogen, Phosphorous and Potassium uptake (kg ha-1), were observed in the range of 46.88 to 129.39, 4.38 to 21.68 and 30.96 to 79.74 kg ha-1, respectively under different INM practices. The application of 75% RDF+2.5 ton FYM ha-1+PSB+ZnSO4@ 25 kg ha-1 (T6), showed maximum total N, P and K uptake by wheat, which was significantly higher over remaining fertility treatments except T3 and T5 during both the years. The straw yield (4454.27 kg ha-1) and seed yield (3984.45 kg ha-1) of wheat was found highest in 75% RDF+2.5 ton FYM/ha+ PSB+ ZnSO4@ 25 kg ha-1 (T6) practices followed by 150% RDF and STCR Based NPK Application (T4), Thus, the study demonstrated that the 75% RDF+2.5 ton FYM ha-1+ PSB+ ZnSO4@ 25 kg ha-1 (T6).
