Abstract:
A field experiment was conducted during winter seasons of 2020-21 and 2021-22 at the Research Farm, RVSKVV College of Agriculture, Gwalior (M.P.) to study the effect of organic sources of nutrients on productivity, nutrient contents and uptake of wheat. Amongst the organic sources of nutrients, F₁₂ (VC 5 t/ha + Jeewamrit 500 lit./ha + Panchagavya 15 lit./ha + FYM 10t/ha) resulted in maximum grain yield (41.82 q/ha) and straw yield (61.70 q/ha). The N, P and K contents in grain and straw were also found in the maximum range. Consequently the total uptake of N, P and K nutrients in grain + straw was 148.78, 24.23 and 125.21 kg/ha, respectively. The second best treatment was Panchagavya 15 lit./ha + VC 5 t/ha + FYM 10 t/ha which recorded total N, P and K uptake 139.77, 21.72 and 120.23 kg/ha, respectively. The third position was attained by Jeewamrit 500 lit./ha + Panchagavya 15 lit./ha + FYM 10 t/ha. The dual and single applied organic treatments recorded lower yield NPK contents, and their uptake per hectare. In control treatment the total NPK uptake was only 88.22, 11.72 and 68.39 kg/ha, respectively.
