Abstract:
A field experiment was conducted during Rabi 2020 at CRF (Crop Research Farm), Department of Agronomy, SHUATS, Prayagraj, (UP.). The soil of the experimental field is sandy loam in texture, low in organic carbon and medium available nitrogen, phosphorus and low in potassium. The treatments consisted Spacing viz., 25 cm x 10 cm, 30 cm x 10 cm and 35 cm x 10 cm and Phosphorus levels viz., 40 kg P/ha, 50 kg P/ha and 60 kg P/ha whose effect is observed in lentil (K-75). The experiment was laid out in Randomized Block Design with nine treatments replicated thrice. Study revealed that the treatment of 30 cm x 10 cm + P at 60 kg/ha was recorded highest grain yield (1519.75 kg/ha) and Stover yield (3241.65 kg/ha) as compared to all treatments. The economic analysis clearly indicate that maximum gross returns (79128.25 Rs/ha), net returns (53153.25 Rs./ha) and B: C (2.05) was recorded with treatment of 30 cm x 10 cm + P at 60 kg/ha.
