Abstract

A field experiment was conducted at PGI farm, Mahatma Phule Krishi Vidyapeeth, Rahuri, during Kharif season of 2022-23. The experiment was laid out in split plot design with three replication and twelve treatments. The main plot treatments consist of three sowing methods viz., M1-Broad bed furrow, M2-Ridges and furrows, M3-Flat bed furrow and sub-plot treatments includes four nutrient management viz., N1- Control (No fertilizer treatment), N2- Fertilizer as per soil test (62.5:75:22.5 Kg N:P2O5:K2O ha-1), N3- GRDF (50:75:45 Kg N:P2O5:K2O ha-1 + FYM 10 t ha-1) and N4- GRDF + Foliar spray 2% DAP at 45 DAS. The result revelled that in main plot broad bed furrow sowing method recorded significantly the maximum growth characters, yield attributes, grain and straw yield as well as net monetary return also in sub plot GRDF + Foliar spray 2% DAP at 45 DAS method of nutrient management method recorded significantly the maximum growth characters, yield attributes, grain and straw yield.

Conclusion

The broad bed furrow sowing method recorded significantly higher growth characters, grain and straw yield. Similarly in case of nutrient management GRDF (50:75:45 Kg N:P2O5:K2O ha-1 + FYM 10 t ha-1) + Foliar spray 2 % DAP at 45 DAS recorded the maximum growth characters, grain and straw yield
