Effect of organic manure and fertilizer on productivity of nagauri pan methi [Trigonella corniculata L.]

摘要

A field experiment was conducted for 3 years (2004-05 to 2006-07) on medium textured soil at farmer field to find out effect of organic manure and fertilizer on productivity of Nagauri pan methi [Trigonella corniculata L.]. Applications of FYM @ 10 t/ha, vermicompost @ 5 t/ha and FYM @ 5t + vermicompost @ 2.5 t/ha remaining at par with 40 kg N + 40 kg P_2O_5 /ha had significantly improved dry leaf yield of Nagauri pan methi over control and half doses of the organic manures. Applications of fertilizer @ 40 kg N + 40 kg P_2O_5 /ha increased dry leaf yield by 17% over control.
