Nitrogen substitution through organic sources in pearlmillet-wheat cropping system

Abstract

The yield performance of pearlmillet-wheat crop sequence to nitrogen through inorganic and organic sources indicate that both the crops significantly responded to application of N through inorganic sources as compared to organic sources. The significantly higher grain yield of pearlmillet (40.47 q ha-1) and wheat (48.23 q ha-1) was recorded with the application of recommended dose of NPK supplemented with 10 t FYM ha-1. Nitrogen applied to pearlmillet crop through organic sources did not show its residual response. to wheat crop.
