Aim: To assess the residual effect of silicon (Si) and phosphorus (P2O5) application on the growth, productivity, lodging resistance and grain quality of wheat in Indo-Gangetic Plains of India. Methodology: A field experiment was conducted with four levels each of silicon (0, 40, 80 and 120 kg Si ha-1) and phosphorus (0, 30, 60 and 90 kg P2O5 ha-1) in a factorial randomized block design (FRBD) replicated three times at research farm of the ICAR-Indian Agricultural Research Institute, New Delhi during 2015-16 and 2016-17 to study the residual effect of Si and P2O5 on wheat. Growth, yield, yield attributes, lodging and grain quality parameters were analyzed using standard procedures. Both the nutrients were applied in aerobic rice crop and their residual effect was studied in wheat crop. Results: Application of Si and P2O5 in preceding rice crop significantly improved the growth, yield, grain quality of succeeding wheat crop. Grain yield of wheat was increased by 21% due to application of Si and P2O5. Significant improvement was observed when P2O5 and Si were applied at 60 and 80 kg ha-1, respectively. Lodging was reduced by 100% with P2O5 and Si application at 90 and 120 kg ha-1, respectively. Interpretation: Application of Si and P2O5 has potential to enhance productivity by improving growth, yield attributes and reduction in abiotic stress like lodging. Fertilization with P2O5 and Si can reduce lodging and improve wheat grain quality through enhanced sturdiness and protein content.

An experiment was conducted in the research field of Pulses Research Sub-Station, BARI, Gazipur during two consecutive years of 2015-16 and 2016-17 to determine the suitable dose of potassium for achieving higher yield attributes, nodulation, nutrient concentration and yield maximization of lentil. There were 5 treatments viz. T1 = Control, T2 = 30 kg K ha-1, T3= 40 kg K ha-1, T4= 50 kg K ha-1 and T5= 60 kg K ha-1 along with the blanket dose of fertilizers of N, P, S, Zn and B @ 15, 20, 10, 2 and 1.5 kg ha-1, respectively for all treatments. The experiment was laid out in randomized complete block design (RCBD) with three replications. Results revealed that the highest seed yield (1092 kg ha-1) of lentil (mean of two years) was found in T4 followed by T5 treatment and the lowest (736 kg ha-1) was noted in K control (T1) treatment. The highest % yield increase over control (48.3%) was recorded from T4 treatment. The maximum nodulation was found in T5 followed by T4 treatment. The highest protein (26.9%), N, P, K, S, Zn and B concentrations of lentil seed were recorded in T4 treatment. Therefore, the results suggest that the appliction of 50 kg K ha-1 along with N15P20S10Zn2B1.5 kg ha-1 are optimum for achieving higher yield potential of lentil in terrace soils of Bangladesh.

A field experiment was conducted during rabi seasons of2017-19 at Panwari village, Agra (U.P.) to assess the effect of integrated potassium management on growth, yield and uptake of nutrient in wheat (Triticum aestivum). The experiment was laidout in a randomized block design with seven treatments and three replications. The results revealed that increasing levels of K fertilizers increased the growth and yield attributes up to 90 Kg K2O ha-1 over control. But the growth and yield attributes 0f wheat were maximum with the application of 150 Kg N + 60 Kg P2O5 + 60 Kg K2O + 5 t FYM ha-1. Increasing levels of NPK fertilizers increased the yield of wheat grain and straw over control. The maximum yield of grain(5.48 t ha-1) and straw(9.60 t ha-1) were recorded with N150P60K60FYM5. The increases in grain and straw yield with this treatment were 44.2 and 29.7% over control, respectively. The crop quality in respect of content and yield of protein increased significantly with conjoint use of fertilizers and maximum values were recorded with 150 Kg N + 60 Kg P2O5 + 60 Kg K2O + 5 t FYM ha-1 treatment. Increasing levels of NPK fertilizers up to N 150 P 60 K 90 also resulted in higher uptake of NPK by the crop and highest uptake of N, P, K and S by wheat crop was recorded with N150 P60 K60 FYM5 and the lowest in control. The soil organic carbon, available N, P and K content also improved with N150 P60 K60 FYM5 over control and lowest values of these parameters were recorded in control.

The Impact

Rice–wheat (RW) rotation is the largest agriculture production system in South Asia with a multifaceted role in maintaining the livelihood of people. The customary practices and indiscriminate use of synthetic fertilizers have culminated in the decline of its productivity and profitability during the past two decades, thus affecting the sustainability of wheat. Safe Rock® Minerals (SRM) is a multi-nutrient rich natural rock mineral with great potential to manage soil degradation, reducing the input of fertilizers, improving soil fertility, and plant health. Thus, a field trial was conducted at the research farm of ICAR—Indian Agricultural Research Institute, New Delhi from 2016 to 2018 to evaluate the impact of Safe Rock® Minerals (SRM) on biometric parameters, productivity, quality, and nutrient uptake by conventional wheat and System of Wheat Intensification (SWI) in the wheat–rice cropping system. The results indicate that SWI performed better in terms of growth, yield, and quality parameters than conventional wheat. Among nutrient management practices; the highest growth, yield, and yield attributes of wheat were achieved with the use of SRM application 250 kg ha−1 + 100% Recommended Dose of Fertilizer (RDF). SRM application also increased grain protein content significantly. In conclusion, the integrated use of SRM with organic manures can serve as an eco-friendly approach for sustainable wheat production.

Growing Conditions

Brinjal is a crop grown widely all over India and preferred by both rich and poor. The Chhotanagpur plateau of Jharkhand is famous for quality vegetable production and brinjal is very commonly grown in this region almost throughout the year. However, the most of the commercial growers using plant protection chemicals and synthetic fertilizers those are so expensive that poor farmers can’t afford. The extensive uses of agro-chemicals and synthetic fertilizers also reduce the quality of both the produce and the cultivated soil. In this context, an attempt has been made through the present investigation by growing different varieties of brinjal by adopting Vedic (Enriched Sanjeevani) Farming and Homa Induction (Agnihotra) techniques with their respective four non-chemical alternative growing approaches, viz.  E1C1: Enriched Sanjeevani (1%), E1C2: Absolute Control (inherent fertility status of the experimental plot); E2C1: Enriched Sanjeevani (1%) + Homa Induction (Agnihotra), and E2C2: Only Homa Induction (Agnihotra). Five varieties of the crop, viz. V1: Swarna Pratibha; V2: Swarna Neelima; V3: Swarna Shakti; V4: Mukta Jhuri; V5: Long Green were grown with their four replications under four growing conditions and the Randomized Completed Block Design was adopted for field trials. Different growth, yield and quality attributing characters of the crop were taken into account and findings revealed that E2C1: Enriched Sanjeevani (1%) + Homa Induction (Agnihotra) was the most suitable growing condition for V2 (Swarna Neelima) with the maximum yield (72.37 t ha-1). Different growth and yield attributes of the crop varieties (especially in the case of V2: Swarna Neelima) were highly influenced by Enriched Sanjeevani (1%) + Homa Induction (Agnihotra) [E2C1] growing condition resulting higher benefit cost ratio of 6.78. Quality contributing attributes were also highly influenced by homa induction (Agnihotra), as a consequence, higher level of dry matter, TSS, and ascorbic acid contents were estimated from almost all samples collected from E2C1: Enriched Sanjeevani (1%) + Homa Induction (Agnihotra), and E2C2: Only Homa Induction (Agnihotra) growing conditions.

The Impact

A field experiment was established to study the impact of foliage fertilization of microelements (Fe and Mo) on lentil at the Agricultural Research Farm Mingora, Swat, Pakistan in 2016-17. All the treatments were assigned in random block design. The results showed that iron (Fe) and molybdenum (Mo) significantly improved the yield and quality of lentil crop. Based on the obtained results, the majority of the parameters increased with the combined application of Fe and Mo. The combined application of Fe and Mo at 500 and 100 g ha-1 produced the maximum grain yield (1361 kg ha-1), biological yield (3126 kg ha-1), 1000 grain weight (54.62 g), protein percent (30 %), N uptake (65.32 kg ha-1), Fe (48.33 mg/g) and Mo (5.07 mg/g) concentration. Results further revealed that Mo at the rate of 100 g ha-1 significantly enhanced the number of nodules (9.13 plant-1) and active nodules (8.03plant-1). These results suggested that Fe and Mo in optimal amount solely or as a blend considerably improve the growth, yield and quality of lentil crop and is therefore recommended for the better production of lentil crop in the agro-climatic condition of Swat valley.
