Description Not Available
Soil microbial population, dehydrogenase activity and chemical properties of soil under different doses
of farmyard manure (FYM), leaf compost and vericopmpost were examined at the research farm of the
Indian Agriculture Research Institute (IARI), New Delhi, India during 2008-09 and 2009-10. Results
indicated the higher value of microbial population, dehydrogenase activity, organic carbon, available
nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P), potassium (K) and lower bulk density were observed in farmyard manure
applied equivalent to 120 kg N ha–1 followed by vermicompost equivalent to 120 kg N ha–1. Grain yield of
popcorn was significantly higher in the treatments of the recommended dose of fertilizers and
vermicompost equivalent to 120 kg N ha–1.
