| Abstract/Description: | An experiment was conducted for two years during rabi seasons of 2005-06 and 2006-07 to study the effect of fertigation on yield parameters and economic benefits of Ashwagandha. The treatments consist of three irrigation regimes (I1-Drip irrigation at 100% PE, I2- at 80% PE and I3-60% PE) and three fertility levels(F1-100%, F2 – 75% and F - 50% of recommended dose of N,P,K) with a control having surface irrigation and soil application of fertilizer @30-20-20 kg N, P2O5and K2O ha-1. The experimental soil was acidic in reaction and sandy loam in texture. Irrigating the crop at 80% PE with 100% recommended dose of fertilizer (RDF) produced the maximum root yield in comparison to other treatment combinations. Drip irrigation produced more root (795 kg ha-1) and seed (78 kg ha-1) yields. NPK uptake increased with an increase in the level of fertilizer. Application of irrigation at 80 % PE helped to absorb maximum amount of 43.41 kg N, 7.57 kg P and 31.95 kg K. Actual soil moisture content was comparatively higher in 100 % PE than 80% PE and 60%PE. |
