Abstract:
A field experiment was conducted at the Instructional farm, BTC CARS, Bilaspur (C.G.) university of Indira Gandhi Krishi Vishwavidyalaya, Raipur (Chhattisgarh). During kharif, season of 2021 with a view to study the “Studies on integrated nutrient management on yield of blackgram (Vigna mungo L.) In Chhattisgarh plain”. The Blackgram (urdbean) used to grown and treatment was replicated three times in randomized block design. The soil of experimental site was alfisol belonging to textural clay loam. The investigation has recommended dose of fertilizer (RDF) i.e., 20:40:20 kg N, P₂O₅, K₂O ha^-1 which were applied at different concentrations in blackgram in seven treatments viz., T₁: - 20:40:20 RDF, T₂: - 125%RDF, T₃:- 150% RDF, T₄:- RDF + FYM@5t ha^-1, T₅:- 125% of RDF + FYM@5t ha^-1, T₆:- 150% of RDF + FYM@5t ha^-1 and T₇: - Control(NPK). The yield parameters i.e., number of pods plant^-1, number of seeds pod^-1, pod length (cm), 1000 seed weight (g), seed yield q ha^-1, straw yield q ha^-1 and harvest index (%) were significantly superior in the treatment T₆ (150% of RDF + FYM@5t ha^-1). On the basis of above findings, treatment T₆ (150% of RDF + FYM@5t ha^-1) stand could be better performance first in position and T₅ (125% of RDF + FYM@5t ha^-1) stand in second order of preference. However, treatment T₃ (150% RDF) comes in next in order. Therefore, it may be concluded that treatment T₆ (150% of RDF + FYM@5t ha^-1) may be prefer for higher yield in blackgram.
