Abstract:
A field experiment was conducted during rabi season of 2016-2017 to find out influence of organic manures on soil Physico-chemical properties under chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) at Instructional Farm, Rajasthan College of Agriculture, Maharana Pratap University of Agriculture and Technology, Udaipur (Rajasthan). Results indicated that available nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium were observed significantly maximum under application of vermicompost 2 t ha^-1 compared to other organic manure treatments while bulk density, particle density, pH, EC were non-significant due to organic manure treatment and liquid organic manure treatment. Among liquid organic manures, application of Panchagvya 3 per cent remained on par with vermiwash 10 per cent and cow urine also recorded significantly available nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium as compared to control, respectively. Organic manures application and liquid organic manure spray did not influence significantly the available micronutrients (Cu, Zn, Fe and Mn) in soil.
