An experiment was conducted for two years during rabi seasons of 2005-06 and 2006-07 to study the effect of fertigation on yield and net return of Japanese mint. The treatments consist of three irrigation regimes (Drip irrigation I1- at 100% PE, I2- at 80% PE and I3-60% PE) and three fertility levels(F2-100%, F2-75% and F3-50% of recommended dose of NPK) with an extra (control) treatment having surface irrigation and soil application of fertilizer @150-60-60 kg N, P2O5 and K2O ha-1. Irrigating the crop at 100% PE with 100% RDF produced the highest herb and oil yield than other treatment combinations. Drip irrigation at 100% PE produced more herbage (32034 kg ha-1) and oil yield (236 kg ha-1) of mint. Application of irrigation at 100% PE and 100% RDF recorded the highest herbage yield of 35798 kg and oil yield of 260 kg ha-1. Application of irrigation at 100% PE helped the plant to absorb maximum amount of nutrients, which was at par with that of 80% PE. NPK uptake increased with an increase in the level of fertilizer. Application of irrigation at 100% PE and full fertilizer dose (100% RDF) absorbed maximum amount of NPK (306 kg ha-1) consisting of 125 kg N, 37 kg P and 144 kg K. In post harvested soil N, P and K depletion were noticed in the soil at lower levels of irrigation and fertilizer. Not Available |
