Cost effective nutrient management practices

In crop nutrient management, crop yields can be increased by minimizing nutrient losses in the environment by managing nutrient supply to the root zone within a reasonable range which realizes the biological need of crops to match N requirement high-yielding crop, and controls nutrient losses. Minimal Nutrient supply and nutrient requirements in high yielding cropping systems must be matched in quantity and synchronized in time and space.

A field experiment on “Effect of INM on growth, yield and quality of Okra [Abelmoschus esculentus (L.) Moench]” was conducted at the instructional farm of Krishi Vigyan Kendra Jajpur situated at Badachana. The experiment was conducted to find out the best suited integrated nutrient management practices for reducing incidence of disease and pest. The experiment was laid out in randomized block design (RBD) with three replications and twelve treatments.

The experiment sight was carried out in the Research farm of Indira Gandhi Krishi Vishwavidyalaya, Raipur during Rabi season 2013-14. Raipur is situated in the Central part of Chhattisgarh. The notable improvement with respect to growth parameters with the use of Vermicompost-A and inorganic fertilizers may be attributed due to sufficient availability of nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium and other essential nutrients which resulted in increasing growth parameters.

A field experiment was conducted to assess the effect of seeding methods and weed management practices on yield of aerobic rice and nutrient removal by the weeds under direct seeded aerobic rice. Among the seeding methods line sowing increased the grain yield than the broadcasting method. Among weed management all the weed management practices were found to be equally effective in reducing the uptake of nutrient by weeds and producing higher grain yield as compare to weedy check. However maximum yield was obtained with the application of Pretilachlor 0.

Weed is a plant growing where it is not desired so weeds are ubiquitous. The vegetable fields are usually infested by a wide spectrum of broad and grassy weeds. Weeds compete with the crops for water, soil, nutrients, light, space and crop yields are significantly reduced as reported by several studies. The vegetable as well as agricultural crops are infested with a variety of weeds. Out of over 800 weeds documented in India, 80 are considered as serious and nearly 200 as major weeds. They also harbour many insect-pests and microorganisms.

Organic agriculture is a low cost and effective way to help many of the world’s poorest people to have good levels of nutrition and a better quality of life. Present experiment was carried out at BCKV, Kalyani, Nadia, West Bengal during the Kharif season of 2013 and 2014 with the objective to study the effect of organic nutrient and plant protection management practices on soil physical properties, economics and to frame the energy budgeting of organic rice cultivation.

Okra (Abelmoschus esculentus) locally known as „Bhendi‟ also known as lady‟s finger is a popular and most common annual vegetable crop in tropical and subtropical parts of the world. Several insect pests attack okra. Use of synthetic insecticides indiscriminately on okra causes environmental pollution and health hazards to human beings due to pesticide residues. Present day concern for pesticide residue free food has induced intense interest for organic farming.

The Sweet pepper is one such vegetable known to possess many nutritional qualities and commercially being grown under the protected conditions. An important component of protected cultivation which influences productivity and quality of produce is application of fertilizers with the irrigation called fertigation. This is a regular and widely accepted practice under protected conditions.
