A field experiment was undertaken to study the effect of different liquid manure on growth and yield of green gram during summer seasons of 2015 and 2016. The experiment was conducted at Model Organic Farm at Kalyani C block of Bidhan Chandra Krishi Viswavidyalaya Nadia under New alluvial zone of West Bengal with 8 different treatments of liquid manure i.e. (T1 = Jivamrut+FYM, T2 = Sanjivak+FYM, T3 = Panchagavya+FYM, T4 = Cow urine+FYM, T5 = Vermiwash+Cow urine + FYM, T6 = Vermiwash+FYM, T7 = Vermicompost+FYM, T8 = Control) and with three replications. The result of experiment revealed that the combined application of Panchagavya @8 kg N equivalent along with FYM @ 12 kg N equivalent (T3) exerted significant influence towards higher growth parameters like plant height, LAI and dry matter accumulation throughout the crop growth period, yield attributes like number of pod/plant, pod length, number of seeds/pod and test weight and thus achieved maximum grain yield (1085 kg/ha) and stover yield (3224 kg/ha). On the basis of field performance, it may be inferred that the treatment FYM@12 kg N equivalent at land preparation + Panchgavya @8 kg N equivalent (twice equal split applications at 30 DAS and 45 DAS through irrigation water) may be recommended as a better organic package of greengram followed by FYM @12 kg N equivalent at land preparation + vermicompost @8 kg N equivalent (twice equal split applications at 30 DAS and 45 DAS as top dressing) among all other treatments applied in the soil.

To study the effect of farm yard manure (FYM) and nitrogen application on growth and productivity of wheat under long term experimental conditions a field experiment was conducted comprised of two level of FYM (0 and 15 t/ha) and three mode of application (kharif, rabi and both kharif and rabi) in main plots whereas two levels of nitrogen (0 and 120 kg/ha) in sub plot was laid out in split plot design with three replications. Plant height, dry matter accumulation, number of tillers/m2, yield (grain yield, straw yield and biological yield) and yield attributing characters, were significantly higher for FYM 15 t/ha was applied in both kharif and rabi season as compared to FYM at 15 t/ha applied either in rabi or kharif and control. Application of 120 kg N/ha significantly increased growth parameters, yield and yield attributes as compared to control. Application of 15 t/ha FYM along with 120 kg N/ha significantly improved the growth and yield of wheat.

A field experiment was conducted to study the effect of different planting techniques (conventional drill sowing at 16, 18 and 20 cm row spacing and bed planting with two and three rows in main plots) and weed control treatments (pinoxaden 50 g/ha, ready-mix (RM) of carfentrazone and metsulfuron 25 g/ha and pinoxaden 50 g/ha + RM of carfentrazone and metsulfuron 25 g/ha in subplots) on growth and productivity of wheat. The grain yield under row spacing 18 cm (53.30 q/ha), and 20 cm (52.02 q/ha), and three rows bed planting (51.96 q/ha) were recorded statistically at par with each other and significantly higher than 16 cm (49.37 q/ha) row spacing and two row bed planting (48.53 q/ha). Gross returns (Rs. 95637/ha) and net returns (Rs. 43929/ha) and B:C ratio (1.85) were record-ed higher under 18 cm row spacing compared to other planting techniques. Tank mixed application of pinoxaden 50 g/ha + RM of carfentrazone and metsulfuron 25 g/ha applied at 35 days after sowing (DAS) controlled both grassy and broad leaved weeds effectively with lower values of weed dry matter accumulation (7.67 g/ha) and produced growth parameters, yield attributes and yield (53.16 q/ha) at par with weed free treatment. In light of the results to maximise productivity, 18 cm row spacing may be practiced and tank mix application of pinoxaden (50 g/ha) + RM of carfentrazone and metsulfuron (25 g/ha) is recommended to reduce losses due to complex weed flora in wheat.

Background: Inclusion of legume crops in multiple cropping systems has become crucial to increase the sustainability of agroecosystems. Short duration mung bean can be easily fitted into many cropping sequences which also turns the farming highly remunerative along with strengthening the sustainability. The current study was aimed to evaluate residual effect of nutrient management on performance of summer mung bean in a gobhi sarson - summer mung bean sequence. Methods: During the period of 2016-17 and 2017-18 different doses of chemical fertilizers (NPK), combination of FYM with chemical fertilizers and different biofertilizers alone as well as their combination were evaluated to find out their residual effect on summer mung bean grown after the gobhi sarson crop. The data on growth parameters, yield attributes viz; plant height, dry matter accumulation, number of branches per plant, number of pods per plant, number of seeds per pod, 100- seed weight were collected. The seed and biological yield from different treatments was also evaluated. Result: All growth parameters, yield attributes, seed and biological yield of summer mung bean were affected significantly with chemical fertilizers, their combined application with FYM treatments as well as different biofertilizers treatments applied to preceding gobhi sarson. Growth and yield significantly improved with each incremental dose of chemical fertilizers i.e. from 0 to 50% RDF, 50 to 75% RDF, 75 to 100% RDF while 50% RDF + FYM @ 10 t ha-1 being the best treatment. The treatment with consortium showed significantly maximum yield and growth parameters followed by combined application of Azotobacter + PSB, PSB alone, Azotobacter alone and no inoculation treatments, respectively.

Present study was conducted during Summer and Kharif 2020 across villages of Gaya district under the South Alluvial zone of Bihar to assess the usefulness of Agro-met Advisory Services (AAS) and to quantify the economic gain of farmers through adoption of advisory in their day-to-day farming practices. To achieve this, two groups of farmers were formed namely, a group adopting the agro-met advisories (AAS farmers) and other group not aware of agro-met advisories (non-AAS farmers). A total of 80 farmers (including AAS and Non AAS) were identified. The agro-met advisory were circulated among AAS farmers for Summer and Kharif season of 2020 and care was taken for proper implementation of advisories by this group. Expenditure incurred & crop situation of both the group of farmers were compared at every stage from land preparation to harvest and crop growth and yields were monitored regularly among them. Significant results were reported for crop growth and yield among the AAS farmers compared to non-AAS. AAS farmers have obtained a net income of Rs. 45188 and Rs. 37273 while, non AAS farmers obtained a net income of Rs. 26225 and Rs. 28510 for green gram and rice respectively. The AAS farmers reported 41.96 and 23.5 per cent of additional benefit in green gram and rice, respectively. The gain in additional benefit was due to management of crop according to agro-met advisory bulletins. Therefore, adoption of agro-met advisory bulletin based on past, current and future weather forecast is an effective tool for enhancing the net productivity and income.

A field experiment on rice (Oryza sativa L.) crop was conducted at Rice Research Station, Kaul (Kaithal), India during kharif season of 2017 and 2018 to evaluate the optimum schedule of nitrogen application in the rice grown under early and late planting conditions. The treatments consisted of three timings of transplanting (3rd week of June, 1st week of July and 3 rd week of July), four levels of N (90, 120, 150 and 180 kg Nha-1) and four timings of N fertilizer application (½ at transplanting + ½ at 21 DAT, ½ at 21 DAT + ½ at 42 DAT, 1/3 at transplanting + 1/3 at 21 DAT + 1/3 at 42 DAT and LCC based N supply) and were laid out in split-plot design with transplanting time and N levels in main plots and N application time in sub-plots. The growth parameters (plant height, number of tillers/m2 and dry matter accumulation/m2), yield attributing characters (number of panicles/m2 and grains/panicle) and yield (grain and straw yield) of rice crop reduced significantly under late planting (3rd week of July) as compared to that under the two earlier plantings (3rd week of June and 1stweek of July) whereas the two earlier plantings were at par in respect of these parameters. The growth, yield attributes and the yield increased with every increase in N application rates but the increase was significant up to 150 kg Nha-1. The highest yield was (7.33 tha-1), however, obtained with the crop transplanted early (up to1st week of July) and supplied with 150 kg Nha-1.Application of N in three equal splits (at 0, 21 and 42 DAT or as per LCC schedule), being at par, resulted into higher yield (grain and straw) than the N application in two equal splits. The net returns and B: C ratio increased appreciably with increase in N application levels upto 150 kg Nha-1 obviously due to increase in crop yield.

Agronomic Biofortification

Background and Objective: Sulphur and boron are found as most critical nutrient elements for the better growth and yield of mustard crop however no such concrete information for their uses in field production of this crop is yet to be reported. Therefore, an experiment was conducted to investigate the effect of agronomic biofortification of sulphur and boron nutrients on the growth and yield of mustard crop. Study Design: The experiment was laid out in a Randomized Complete Block Design (RCBD) with three replicates. Place of Study: The experiment was carried out in the Crop Botany Field Laboratory, Bangladesh Agricultural University, Mymensingh. Methodology: Three doses of sulphur (S) viz. 0, 20 and 40 kg ha-1 and three doses of boron (B) viz. 0, 0.5 and 1.0 kg ha-1 and their possible combinations were used as basal doses. Field data were collected from periodic destructive samplings on the plant height, number of leaves and branches per plant, total dry matter accumulation and finally yield components and yield. Results: Sulphur and boron fertilizations significantly influence the plant height, production of branches and leaves per plant, dry matter accumulation and yield attributes and yield of mustard crop. The mustard crop fertilized with 40 kg S ha-1 in combination with 1 B kg ha-1 produced taller plant, higher number of branches and leaves in each plant and higher amount of dry matter per plant while these plant traits were found as minimum when the growing the mustard crops in control plots i.e. the plants received neither sulphur nor boron. Application of sulphur @ 40 kg ha-1 along with boron @ 1 kg ha-1 produced the highest seed yield (2.73 t ha-1) whereas the lowest seed yield (1.08 t ha-1) was found where no sulphur and boron were applied. Conclusion: The result conclude that combine application of sulphur and boron @ 40 and 1 kg per hectare, respectively was found to be most effective dose in enhancing growth and yield of mustard crop.

Abstract Chitosan is a natural heterogeneous polymer, non-toxic and find many potential applications in agriculture. The search of a biopolymer to replace the synthetic agrochemicals, the effects of foliar application of chitosan solution on agronomic performance under field experiments have been investigated in two consecutive harvests (2014/2015 and 2015) of soybean and maize. Two chitosan concentrations (0.5 and 1%) were sprayed four times during the culture development and the evaluation was based on morphological characteristics, growth and yield components. Seeds were collected to determine the content of macro- and micronutrients. Results revealed that most of the morphological and growth parameters (plant height, leaf number per plant) and yield attributes were not increased with the chitosan treatment in soybean and maize. The soybean treated with foliar application of chitosan 0.5% increased the accumulation of nitrogen by 9.14% when compared with the water treatment, but the effect was not consistent in both seasons and cultivars. The values of the other nutrients did not change the content. Maize plants treated with chitosan (0.5% or 1%) significantly decreased the boron concentration by 66.7% in the grains analyzed and may have influenced the plant development (height) without altering the other agronomic parameters. Therefore, whereas the climatic conditions in these two seasons were stable and biotic or abiotic stresses were not observed, foliar application of chitosan solution did not present differences that could establish a pattern of behavior in field experiments conducted by two harvests.
