Effect of Poultry Manure and PSB Culture in Conjunction with Different Levels of Phosphorus on Physico-Chemical Properties of Soil of Black Gram (Vigna mungo L.)

Abstract

The experiment was conducted during kharif (July-October) season 2016 on crop research farm of Department of Soil Science and Agricultural Chemistry, Naini Agricultural Institute, Allahabad. By order to evaluate the effect of different treatment of poultry manure and PSB culture with levels of phosphorus. The Soil parameters viz. bulk density (Mg m-3), particle density (Mg m-3), Pore space (%) and water holding capacity (%), pH, EC (dSm-1), organic carbon (%), available nitrogen (kg ha-1), phosphorus (kg ha-1) and potassium (kg ha-1). All parameters of soil properties are found significant accept Pore space (%). Physical properties viz., Bulk density (Mg m-3), Particle density (Mg m-3), and Water holding capacity (%) was recorded as 1.30, 2.85, 52.94, 64.69. chemical properties viz., pH, EC, organic carbon (%), available nitrogen (kg ha-1), available phosphorus (kg ha-1) and potassium (kg ha-1) was recorded as 7.19, 0.19, 0.79, 263.01, 23.89, 132.57 respectively in the treatment was significantly higher as compared to other treatment combination. Bulk density (Mg m-3), particle density (Mg m-3) Pore space (%), water holding capacity (%), organic carbon (%), available nitrogen (kg ha-1), and potassium (kg ha-1) T8 (P 100% + poultry manure) and pH, EC (dSm-1) and available phosphorus (kg ha-1) T9 [P 100% + PSB culture] was found to be the best, for improvement of the physico-chemical properties of soil.
