Abstract
An experiment was conducted to study the response of organic sources on the growth, yield, and quality of semi-rabi green gram. The experiment was conducted during semi rabi season 2021, at Agronomy Farm, B.A. College of Agriculture, Anand Agricultural University, Anand, Gujarat, comprising one chemical treatment with nine integrated nutrient management and biofertilizer treatments i.e. total 10 integrated organic manures treatments impose in semi rabi green gram. The layout of experiment was done according to Randomized complete block design with three replications. Growth attributes like plant height, number of branches, dry matter accumulation plant-1 and dry weight of nodules plant-1 of green gram as influenced by an application of 75% N through vermicompost + ST (5 ml kg seed-1) of Rhizobium + Bio NPK consortium 1 L ha-1. Significantly higher green gram yield attributing character and biological yield was observed significantly higher where application done by 75% N through vermicompost + ST (5 mL kg seed-1) of Rhizobium + Bio NPK consortium 1 L ha-1. Quality parameter and content is most important factors for green gram, an application of 75% N through vermicompost + ST (5 ml kg seed-1) of Rhizobium + Bio NPK consortium 1 L ha-1 treatment reported significantly higher seed and straw NPK content and uptake.
