Description ABSTRACT
The present studies entitled “Effect of Integrated Nutrient Management on Lolium perenne L.
were carried out during March 2009 to June 2010 at the experimental farm of the Department of
Floriculture and Landscaping, Dr. Y.S. Parmar University of Horticulture and Forestry, Nauni, Solan
(H.P.). The experiment was conducted on 2 genotypes of Lolium perenne L. viz., Amenity and
Agricultural type and was laid out in a randomized block design with 12 treatment combinations
replicated thrice. Treatment combinations consisted of the use of biofertilizers namely, VAM,
Azotobacter & PSB, inorganic fertilizers and organic manures namely, farm yard manure and
vermicompost.
Amenity type of Lolium perenne L. performed well with respect to establishment rate, culm
length, number of mowings required, weed population/m2, turf growth, visual quality rating, turf
colour, leaf blade texture, multiplication rate, rooting behaviour, chlorophyll content, pH, EC, OC,
available N, P and K and leaf N, P and K content.
Based on the parameters like number of mowings required, weed population/m2, turf growth
and visual quality rating, scores were allotted to both the genotypes and presentability was worked out
accordingly. Amenity type grown with 100% required dose of fertilizers, FYM (5 kg/m2) and
biofertilizers namely, VAM, Azotobacter and PSB (2g each/m2) performed well during most parts of
the year with most presentable being in the month of March, 2010.
