(Karnataka) at five location under the project of Bhoo Samruddhi collaboration between KSDA&#13;
(Karnataka State Department of Agriculture) and ICRISAT (International Crop Research Institute for&#13;
Semi-Arid Tropics Agriculture). To study the “Effect of improved management practices on factor of&#13;
productivity on Groundnut (Arachis hypogaea L.) Cultivation”. Application of recommended dose of&#13;
fertilizer (25:50:25 NPK+ Gypsum @ 500kg ha-1&#13;
at 30 DAS) along with micro nutrient (ZnSO4@ 25 kg&#13;
ha-1 &amp; Borax @ 10 kg ha-1&#13;
at basal application) gave higher growth characters viz., plant height, leaf area&#13;
plant-1&#13;
, total dry matter plant-1&#13;
, leaf area index, crop growth rate, relative growth rate, and yield attributes&#13;
&amp; yield viz., number of pods plant-1 (37.02), weight of pods plant-1 (32.70 g), pod yield(1633.95 kg ha-1&#13;
),&#13;
haulm yield (2059.89 kg ha-1&#13;
) of groundnut crop. Whereas, lower growth characters, yield attributes &amp;&#13;
yield were observed in only recommended dose of fertilizer (25:50:25 NPK+ Gypsum @ 500kg ha-1&#13;
at&#13;
30 DAS).</mods:abstract><mods:classification authority="lcc">Groundnut</mods:classification><mods:classification authority="lcc">Fertilizers</mods:classification><mods:classification authority="lcc">Fertilizer Applications</mods:classification><mods:originInfo><mods:dateIssued encoding="iso8061">2017</mods:dateIssued></mods:originInfo><mods:originInfo><mods:publisher>IJCS</mods:publisher></mods:originInfo><mods:genre>Article</mods:genre></mods:mods>
