Abstract
SUMMARY The experiment was conducted at Hisar during kharif season of 2011 with an objective to see the effect of different production factors on the NPK content and their uptake as well as quality of pearl millet in terms of protein content. Eight different treatments i. e. T 1 –Full package of practices [RDF (125 kg N+62.5 kg P 2 O 5 /ha)+ZnSO 4 @ 25 kg/ha+biofertilizer biomix (Azospirillum+PSB)+thinning and gap filling+weeding and hoeing (20 and 35 DAS)+irrigation], T 2 : T 1 –RDF (N and P), T 3 : T 1 –ZnSO 4 @ 25 kg/ha, T 4 : T 1 –Biomix, T 5 : T 1 –Thinning and gap filling (19 DAS), T 6 : T 1 –Weeding and hoeing (20 and 35 DAS), T 7 : T 1 –Irrigation and T 8 : Control were laid out in randomized block design with three replications. Nonadoption of individual factors recommended dose of fertilizer (T 2 ), ZnSO 4 (T 3 ), biomix (T 4 ), thinning and gap filling (T 5 ), weeding and hoeing (T 6 ) and irrigation (T 7 ) caused a decrease in grain yield by 32.8, 12.2, 7.7, 16.7, 30.1, 20.2 and 48.0 (control), per cent and stover yield by 22.7, 7.9, 4.0, 10.0, 18.9, 16.0 and 32.2 per cent (control) than T 1 (FPP), respectively. Among all the treatments, T 1 recorded significantly higher N, P, K and protein contents and their uptake in grain as well as in stover. Nitrogen content in grain increased significantly from 1.66 per cent under control (T 8 ) to 1.84 per cent in T 1 and followed by T 4 (1.82%), T 3 (1.82%) and T 5 (1.79%). The phosphorus content also increased from 0.24 per cent (T 8 ) to 0.31 per cent (T 1 ) in grain, whereas potassium content in grain was lowest under T 8 (0.53%) and highest under T 1 (0.60%) treatment. The total N, P and K uptake was found highest in T 1 (129.78, 26.47 and 308.77 kg/ha, respectively). The protein content in grain also significantly increased from 10.4 per cent (T 8 ) to 11.5 per cent in T 1 and followed by T 4 (11.4%) and T 3 (11.3%) treatments. The present study clearly indicated that non-adoption of individual factors i. e. recommended dose of N & P and weeding and hoeing caused a maximum decrease in grain yield by 32.8 and 30.1 per cent and stover yield by 22.7 and 18.9 per cent than full package of practices, respectively. The adoption of full package of practices resulted in the higher N, P, K and content (%) and their uptake (kg/ha) in grain and stover.
