Abstract:
An experiment was carried out at Soil Science and Agricultural Chemistry Research farm, Soil Science and Agricultural Chemistry, Sam Higginbottom University of Agriculture, Technology and Sciences, Prayagraj during rabi season 2020-21 is located at 25⁰ 24’ 42” N latitude and 81⁰ 50’ 56” E longitudes at 98 m altitude above the mean sea level, trial was laid out in 3×3 factorial randomized block design with three replications, consisting of nine treatments. Treatment T₉ (@ 100% RDF+ZnSO₄ @ 10 kg ha^-1+NC @ 500g ha^-1) was found to be best. The pH, EC, OC, available Nitrogen (kg ha^-1), Phosphorus (kg ha^-1) @ Potassium (kg ha^-1), Sulphur (ppm) and Zinc (ppm) which were as 7.44, 0.27, 069, 325.82,30.67,205.06and1.51 respectively. The soil physical properties as the texture (Sandy loam), bulk density (Mg m^-3), particle density (Mg m^-3) and Pore space (%) were found to be significant. Soil Health can be maintained with integrated management practices.
