A field experiment was conducted to explore the effects of organic manures and green manuring practices on growth, yield attributes, quality and economics of lemongrass (Cymbopogon flexuosus L.) under custard apple (Annona squamosa L.) based agri-horti system. The findings indicated that growth, yield attributes and yield as well as oil composition, soil nutrient status, microbial populations were significantly increased due to the use of both organic manures and green manuring. The significantly higher results were obtained with vermicompost (2.5 t/ha) + Azotobacter, which was found superior over other practices in terms of growth, yield attributes, oil composition and its quality and soil nutrient status as well as economics of crop cultivation.

An experiment was conducted in farmer’s field at different locations of kole lands to study the effect of micro nutrient Boron on yield and soil nutrient status of rice during 2012-2014. The treatments comprised of different levels of B viz; 2.5 kg Borax/ ha, 5 kg Borax/ha, 10 kg Borax/ha, 12.5 kg Borax/ha, 15 kg Borax/ha and untreated control. Observations on growth characters, yield attributes, yield and soil and plant nutrient status were recorded. The application of 15 kg borax /ha recorded the maximum number of panicles/m2 , number of grains /panicles, thousand grain weight, grain and straw yield of rice. The results of pooled data on plant and soil nutrient status revealed that application of boron had a positive effect on uptake and availability of nutrients in soil. The study concluded that the soil application of borax@ 15 kg /ha was found to be good for correcting the deficiency in B deficient areas of Kole lands.

A field experiment was conducted at the Integrated Research Farm of Himalayan College of Agricultural Sciences and Technology (HICAST) at Bandegaon, Lalitpur, Nepal during 2009 to scrutinize the effect of Integrated Nutrient Management (INM) on the growth, yield and soil nutrient status to tomato (Lycopersicon lycopersicum (L.) Karsten). Following a randomized complete block design, 9 treatments with 3 replications were maintained. The study revealed that the integration of organic manures in combination with inorganic fertilizers was found significant in improving the overall plant growth, yield and soil macro nutrient status than the sole application of either of these nutrients. Maximum plant height and number of leaves per plant were observed with treatment 16.66 mt/ha FYM + 8.33 mt/ha Vermicompost + NPK. The earlier of days to 50% flowering was observed in treatment 20 mt/ha FYM. Highest number of fruit clusters, maximum fruit weight and fruit yield (25.74 mt/ha) were recorded in treatment 16.66 mt/ha FYM + 8.33 mt/ha Vermicompost + NPK. The pH value was found near to neutral in treatment 10 mt/ha vermicompost. Similarly, the maximum organic matter percentage was also recorded in treatment 10 mt/ha vermicompost. The highest available nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium were found in treatment ½ NPK + 15 mt/ ha vermicompost.DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.3126/njst.v12i0.6474 Nepal Journal of Science and Technology 12 (2011) 23-28
