Abstract

The experiment entitled “Effect of Integrated nutrient management on plant growth parameters and yield of pearl millet (Pennisetum glaucum L.) in alluvial soil of Gird region of Madhya Pradesh” was carried out in the Department of Soil Science and Agricultural Chemistry, R.V.S.K.V.V., CoA, Gwalior, Districts of Madhya Pradesh during kharif season 2021.There were 12 treatments T1 – Control, T2 -50% NPK, T3-75% NPK, T4 -100% NPK, T5 - 150% NPK, T6 -100% NPK-S, T7 -100% NPK ZnSO4, T8 -100% NPK + FeSO4, T9 -50% NPK + FYM, T10 -75% NPK + FYM, T11 -100% NPK + FYM and T12-100% NPK + FYM + {PSB+ Azotobacter (Seed treatment)} and were replicated thrice under RBD. The results indicated that plant growth parameters yield parameters found highest in the treatment T12-100% NPK + FYM + {PSB+ Azotobacter (Seed treatment)} which was found significant with the treatment T1-Control.

Keywords

Integrated nutrient, plant growth parameter, quality, alluvial soil.

Conclusion

It may be drawn to close from the present experiment that pearlmillet responded significantly to application of treatment 100% NPK + FYM + {PSB+ Azotobacter (Seed treatment)} which was followed by the treatment 100% NPK+ FYM.
