GROWTH AND YIELD OF URDBEAN (Vigna mungo L. Hepper) AS INFLUENCED BY SUNFLOWER (Helianthus annuus L.) RESIDUE MANAGEMENT
Journal Title: International Journal of Agriculture Sciences - Year 2017, Vol 9, Issue 9
Abstract
A field experiment was conducted during kharif, 2014 at Main Agricultural Research Station, University of Agricultural Sciences, Dharwad to study the management of summer sunflower (Helianthus annuus L.) residue in kharif urdbean (Vigna mungo L. hepper) under rainfed condition. The treatments comprised of FYM at 5 t ha-1 applied 15 days before sowing, sunflower residue used as mulch at the time of sowing, sunflower residue with compost culture applied 15 days before sowing, incorporation of chopped sunflower residue before 15 days of sowing, sunflower residue decomposed for 75 days with compost culture and applied at the time of sowing, sunflower residue + FYM at 5 t ha-1 applied 15 days before sowing. The results revealed that among the sunflower residue treatments significantly higher grain yield was recorded with sunflower residue at 4 t ha-1 decomposed for 75 days with compost culture (1317 kg ha-1) over other treatments and was on par with FYM at 5 t ha-1 applied 15 days before sowing (1264 kg ha-1). Growth and yield parameters were also followed the similar trend.
