Effect of integrated nutrient management on soil and plant nutrient content in potato (Solanum tuberosum L)

Abstract

The present study was conducted to investigate the “Effect of integrated nutrient management on growth, yield and quality of potato”. Experiment was laid out in the randomized block design with 14 treatments. The results revealed that application of Azotobacter + PSB + KSB + MgSO4 + micro nutrient mixture + 75 % RDF (T13) recorded significantly maximum soil available N (400 Kg/ha), P (62.33 Kg/ha) and K (294.67 Kg/ha), EC (0.74 ds/m), PH (4.87) and OC (0.94 %), leaf tissue nitrogen (1.85 %), leaf tissue phosphorous (1.36 %) and leaf tissue potassium (2.83 %) while minimum values were found in the control.
