Effect of different level of FYM, PSB and Neem cake on physico-chemical property and yield of field pea

Abstract

A field Experiment was conducted during the winter season of 2016-17 at research farm of Soil Science and Agricultural Chemistry SHUATS, Allahabad. Field trails were dsigned in split plot arrangement based on Randomized Block Design with three replication and nine treatment The treatment consisted of three factors namely FYM (0, 10, 20 kg), PSB (0, 1, 2 kg.) Neem Cake (0, 0.25, 0.5 t ha-1). The result shows that application of different levels combination of FYM, PSB and Neem Cake increased growth and yield of Field Pea. It was recorded from the application of Bio-fertilizers in treatment T7 [(@ 100% FYM: PSB + 100%. Neem Cake)] increased pH 7.1, EC 0.26 dS m-1, Organic carbon 0.63%, available Nitrogen 339.00 kg ha-1, Phosphorus 32.70 kg -ha1, Pottasium 206.56 kg ha-1 The physical parameters of soil such as bulk density g/cc, particle density g/cc and pore spaces % increased. It was also concluded from trail that the application of fertilizers in treatment T7 [(@ 100% FYM: PSB + 100% Neem Cake)] was found in increasing Plant height, No. of leaves per plant, No. of branch, length of pod (cm), number of grain per pod, Test weight (g.plot-1) and grain yield and as well as yield.
