Abstract:
The present study was conducted for evaluate the organic manures (FYM and vermicompost) with 100% NPK and Azotobacter on yield, protein content and its economics in wheat crop during Rabi – 2019-20 at experimental Farm, Faculty of Agricultural Sciences, ITM University, Gwalior (Madhya Pradesh). The findings of the present study indicated that application of 100% NPK (150: 60: 40 kg ha^-1) along with 9 t FYM or 04 t Vermicompost ha^-1 produced higher growth and yield attributes of wheat. The maximum grain yield (4323.3 kg ha^-1) recorded with treatment T₅ (100% NPK + Azoto + 04 t VC ha^-1) closely followed 100% NPK + Azoto + 9 t FYM ha^-1 (T₈) with 4197.2 kg ha^-1 grain yield. Application of organic manure (FYM/VC) along with Azotobacter with 100% NPK recorded significantly higher as protein content and protein yield as compared to 100% NPK alone treatment. The maximum net return (Rs.63035 ha^-1) and B:C ratio (3.10) were recorded under T₇ (100% NPK + Azoto + 6 t FYM ha^-1) and T₆ (100% NPK + Azoto + 3 t FYM ha^-1) respectively.
