Abstract/Description: | A field experiment carried out with organic manures and mineral fertilizers along with absolute control. There were 12 treatments comprising 10t ha-1 sheep manure, 4t ha-1 vermi-compost, recommended doses of fertilizers (90:40:30 kg ha-1 of N:P:K) alone or in combination with Azotobacter and PSB inoculants. Results revealed that biological sequestration of carbon (C) of fennel was higher with 10 t ha-1 sheep manure and seeds inoculated with PSB over the other treatments and was least in control. However, C accumulation in various parts of crop was more in stover (990.7 kg ha-1) followed by seed (699.6 kg ha-1) and roots (507.1 kg ha-1). Similarly, highest CO2 offset can be achieved by using 10 t ha-1 sheep manure along with PSB in a season (10.03 t ha-1) or per day (62.7 kg ha-1 day-1) basis. Among the manures, C foot print was also higher with 10 t sheep manure along with PSB inoculants thereby net balance of CO2 offsets was higher with vermicompost (4t ha-1) than sheep manure. The net balance of CO2 offset was second highest with PSB and least with control. The pool of soil organic carbon in rhizospheric soil was higher with vermi-compost followed by recommended doses of fertilizers and sheep manure. Therefore, it can be assumed that highest CO2 offset can be credited by fennel with vermi-compost. However, highest growth, yield and ‘C’ sequestration can be achieved by sheep manure along with bio-fertilizers. |
