Effect of Calcium and Sulphur application on the yield of dry matter, pod and kernel of POL. 2 groundnut grown in two soils collected from the major groundnut growing tracts of Tamil Nadu

Abstract

A por culture experiment involving four levels of calcium (0.50.100 and 150 kg/ha) four levels of sulphur (0,40,80 and 120 kg/ha) and two types of soil representing Tindivanam and Pollachi tract was conducted. Application of Ca and S increased the root and shoot (Haulm) yield significantly. Pod and kernel yield of POL. 2 groundnut variety could be substantially increased by application of Ca and S at 150 kg Ca/ha and 120 kg S/ha for Tindivanam soil and 100 kg Co/ha and 80 kg S/ha for Aliyamnager soil.
