Influence of Sulphur and Zinc on Growth, Yield and Quality of Summer Green Gram

Abstract

A field trail was maintained at crop research Farm, Department of Agronomy, SHUATS, Prayagraj for Zaid season 2022. The exploratory plot’s soil had a sandy loam texture, a (pH 7.1) that was natural, a low in organic carbon (0.28 %), available N (225 kg/ha), available P (19.50 kg/ha) and available K (213.7 kg/ha). The Treatments consisted of 3 levels of Sulphur Levels S1 (20 Kg/ha), S2 (30 Kg/ha), S3 (40 Kg/ha) and 3 levels of zinc (Zn1-5 kg/ha), (Zn2- 7.5kg/ha) and (Zn3-10 kg/ha). The outcome reported that the of Sulphur 40 Kg/ha + Zn 10 Kg/ha recorded maximum (Treatment-9) Plant height (63.33 cm), Number of Nodules per plant (28.00), plant dry weight (12.78 g/plant), number of pods per plant (39.61), number of seeds per pod (12.66), test weight (32.3 g), seed yield (0.868 t/ha), straw yield (2.287 t/ha) and harvest index was only found to be non-significant. Maximum Gross returns (77182.00 INR/ha), Net returns (53550.00 INR/ha) and B:C ratio (2.2) was recorded with the treatment (T9) with the application of Sulphur 40 Kg/ha + Zinc 10 Kg/ha.
