Abstract

The effluent obtained from South India Viscose Industries Ltd., was analysed and found to be rich in organic matter, nitrogen, phosphorous, calcium, magnesium, trace elements and had EC below the critical limit fixed for irrigation. In order to assess the impact of viscose pulp industry effluent and Rhizobium and phosphobacteria seed inoculant on cowpen production, a pot culture study was conducted. From the study, it was concluded that, the germination percentage, number of nodules and yield and 100 seed weight were better under effluent irrigation along with Rhizobium + phosphobacteria seed treatment.

Keywords: Viscose pulp, effluent, Rhizobium, Phosphobacteria.
