INTEGRATED NUTRIENT MANAGEMENT FOR RAINFED SORGHUM IN RED SOILS OF NORTH WESTERN ZONE OF TAMIL NADU

Abstract

Field experiments conducted during 1986-88 at Regional Research Station, Paiyur, revealed that application of 30 Kg N and 20 Kg P2Os/ha in the form of enriched farm yard manure along with Azopirillum inoculation registered the highest yield increase over the traditional practice of application of farm yard manure alone, in rainfed laxpanicle sorghum grown in rad soils. Application of fertilizers in the form of enriched Fym produced greater response to applied nutrients than when applied as straight fertilizers.
