Abstract

An experiment was conducted during rainy seasons of 2003 and 2004 at college of agriculture, Bikaner to study the effect of vermicompost and inorganic fertilizers on productivity of pearl millet [Pennisetum glaucum (L.) R.Br.Emend stunz]. Results of study revealed that plant height, dry matter accumulation at harvest, total number of tillers at 40 DAS, yield attributes, seed and stover yields, harvest index, nutrient uptake (N, P and K) by grain and stover, net returns and B:C ratio increased significantly due to drilling of vermicompost @ 2 tonnes/ha over control where as its drilling @ 1 tonne/ha remain statistically at par with soil incorporation @ 2 tonnes/ha. Maximum and significantly higher growth parameters, yield attributes, yield, HI, nutrient uptake, net return and B:C ratio were recorded due to application of 90 kg N + 45 kg P 2 O 5 /ha as compared to control (N 0 P 0 ).
