Response of different nutrient management on the major nutrient N, P and K uptake in black gram

Abstract

A field experiment entitled “Effect of mycorrhiza, zinc and boron on growth and yield of black gram” was carried out at Agronomy Unit, Dr. PDKV, Akola during kharif season of 2016-17 on clayey soil. The experiment was laid in randomized block design with nine treatments and three replications. Experimental results revealed that growth parameters were significantly influenced by application of (T6) i.e T2+ Mycorrhiza (AM) @ 10 kg ha-1 + Seed Soaking of 1% ZnSO4 followed by (T2) + Mycorrhiza (AM) @ 10 kg ha-1 + Seed Soaking 0.5% boron (T7). Total uptake of N,P and K content of grain and straw were obtained higher values with the application (T4). T2+ Mycorrhiza (AM) @ 10 kg ha-1 + Seed Soaking of 1% ZnSO4 (T6) and followed (T2) + Seed Soaking of 1% ZnSO4.
