Description A field experiment was conducted at the University of Agricultural Sciences,
Dharwad during kharif season of 2004, to study the effect of organics, biofertilizers,
micronutrients and plant growth regulators on seed yield and quality of mothbean.
The experiment consisted of eleven treatments laid out in randomised block design
with three replications.
Results revealed that, the application of FYM 10 t per ha + RDF (10:20:0 kg
NPK/ha) gave higher seed yield (1275 kg/ha) followed by vermicompost 4 t per ha of
RDF (1261 kg/ha), FYM 5 t per ha (1235 kg/ha), vermicompost 2 t per ha of RDF
(1228 kg/ha) over without organics (1059 kg/ha). The seed yield was significantly
higher with the application of FYM 10 t per ha along with RDF (recommended dose
of fertilizer) was attributed to higher number of braches (3.87), number of pods per
plant (54.29) and 100 seed weight (2.28 g).
Among the treatments, application of FYM (10 t/ha along with RDF recorded
significantly higher seedling length (43.46 cm), root length (26.10 cm), seedling
vigour index (4277), germination rate index (43.77) and seedling dry weight (92.0
mg) followed by RDF + vermicompost 4 t per ha and RDF + FYM 5 t per ha over
control.
Application of FYM 5 t per ha along with RDF recorded higher net returns
(Rs. 24,706) and B:C ratio (2.91) compared to other treatments.
