Abstract

The aim of this research was to determine the effect of phosphorus and application of molybdenum of blackgram (Vigna mungo L.) on growth and yield attributes (Var. Shakher-II). An experimental field investigation was undertaken at the Crop Research Farm, Department of Agronomy, SHUATS, Prayagraj, during the Kharif of 2020. (U.P.). Phosphorus and Molybdenum are the important factors for increasing the growth and production. The soil in which experiment plot was sandy loam in texture, pH was practically neutral (7.4), organic carbon was low (0.28%), available N was 225 kg/ha, available P was 21.50 kg/ha and available K was 125.9 kg/ha. The Observation Nine treatments were replicated three times in a randomized block design the findings show that yield attributes viz. the no. of pods produced for plants (35.07), seeds per pod (4.80) and test weight (24.39 g) obtained with maximum application of 40 kg/ha P2O5 along with Mo (Foliar spar 0.8% at 25 DAS). However, seed yield (1369.25 kg/ha),

Conclusion

Based on the findings it is possible to achieved that for optimum seed yield, the performance of black gram at 40 kg/ha P2O5 + Mo 0.8% foliar spray at 25 DAS helpful for producing more yield under East U.P
