Abstract
The present investigation entitled "Evaluation of soil physico-Chemical properties, growth and yield of pigenonpea as influenced by method of planting and integrated nutrient management in vertisols of Karnataka" was conducted at farmer's fieldi i.e. in three location of the same village Kasbe camp, District: Raichur (Karnataka)under the project of Bhoo Samruddhi, ICRISAT (International Crop Research Institute for Semi-Arid Tropics Agriculture), Patancheru,Hyderabad during kharif season 2016. The soil of the experiment plots was clayey. Low available nitrogen in all the three farmers plot phosphorus was high in two plots except one plot, while potassium was high in all plots. The experiment was laid out in factorial randomized block design (FRBD) with three replications comprising ten treatment combination. Treatment combination consisting of two factor, factor-1 at two levels viz., methods of planting (dibbling and transplanting), and factor-2 at five levels viz., N1-control (Farmers practice) N2- FYM @ 5 t ha-1, N3-vermicompost @ 5 t ha-1, N4-neem cake @ 250 kg ha-1, N5- green leaf manure (Gliricidia) @ 5 t ha-1. Sowing was done on July 14, 2016 harvesting was done on January 28, 2017.The transplanted pigeonpea (M2) recorded the maximum growth parameters viz., plant height, number of leaves, number of primary and secondary branches plant-1, leaf area plant-1, leaf area index, total dry matter plant-1 as well as yield and yield attributing characters viz., number of pods plant-1, weight of pods plant-1, seed yield plant-1, grain yield ha-1, stalk yield ha-1 and quality attributes of pigeonpea crop viz., protein yield ha-1 . The nutrient content and uptake by seed and stalk, N in seed, content of P, K, and S in seed and stalk were found higher. In case of micronutrients Fe and Cu in seed, B and Zn in stalk and Mn in both was recorded higher nutrient content. Whereas concerned to uptake all the nutrients i.e. primary (N, P, K), secondary (Ca, Mg, S) and micronutrients (Fe, Zn, Cu, Mn and B) were recorded higher uptake in the transplanted pigeonpea. However, there was no effect on physico-chemical properties due to the method of planting.
