Abstract

A field experiment was carried out at Chaudhary Chhotu Ram Post-Graduate College, Muzaffarnagar, Uttar Pradesh during 200910 and 201011 on sandy loam soil, to evaluate the appropriate fertilizer level of NPK in conjunction with integrated nutrient management schedule for Indian mustard [Brassica juncea (L.) Czernj. & Cosson]. Twelve treatment combinations consisting of 2 fertilizer levels, viz. 75% RDF and 100% recommended dose of fertilizer (RDF) (80.0 + 25.8 + 33.2 kg N + P + K/ha), and 6 INM schedules, viz. N, P, K alone and its suc- cessive combinations with vermicompost (VC), sulphur (S), zinc (Zn), boron (B) and Azotobacter, were studied in randomized block design (RBD) with 3 replications. Application of 100% RDF not only increased the growth and yield attributes but also increased the seed yield and nutrient uptake significantly, which resulted in higher net re- turns and benefit: cost ratio in comparison to 75% RDF. On an average, seed yield of Indian mustard increased to the tune of 7.4% under 100% RDF over 75% RDF. However, higher dose of inorganic fertilization had adverse ef- fect on oil and favourable effect on glucosinolate contents and therefore, the highest values were registered under 75% RDF. Significantly higher growth, yield and yield components and nutrient uptake were recorded when N, P, K was integrated with VC 2 t/ha + sulphur 40 kg/ha +zinc sulphate 25 kg/ha + boron 1 kg/ha and seed inoculation with Azotobacter 10 g/kg seed, which was closely followed by the treatment N, P, K + VC + S + Zn + B. The in- crease in mean seed yield under the application of N, P, K + VC + S + Zn + B + Azotobacter was 28.14% higher

8 of 19 groups shown: named compounds and organisms first, then groups whose results differ (checked claim by claim), then those with positive and negative results, then the smaller groups.

Claims are grouped by organism, treatment and what was measured or targeted. A paper counts as positive when any of its claims in the group is positive.
