Effect of nano fertilisers on nutrient availability, growth and yield of wheat

Abstract

The field experiment was carried on the topic Effect of nano fertilizers on nutrient availability, growth and yield of wheat. The experiment was conducted on wheat variety Karan Vandana with six treatments viz., T1 (RDF (120:60:40 kgha-1 N: P2O5:K2O), T2 [Recommended dose of P2O5& K2O+ (50% RDN in one spray +2 spray of Nano Urea)], T3 [100% N through FYM], T4 [100%N through Vermicompost], T5 [50% RDF+25% Vermicompost] and T6 [75% RDF+ 25% Vermicompost] in RBD replicated three times. The treatment combination consists of FYM, doses of fertilizers and Vermicompost. The study it is concluded that among the different treatments T2 [Recommended dose of P2O5+50% RDN +Nano Urea (2 spray) was found to be the significant treatment in increasing the crop growth, straw yield, plant height, no. of branches per plant, straw yield, grain yield as well as highest benefit: cost ratio of wheat.
