Effect of Organic Amendments with Wheat Straw and Sugarcane Bagasse on Activities of Azotobacter

Abstract

A field experiment with Azotobacter in various combinations with wheat straw and sugarcane bagasse was conducted during the kharif 1975 season. Date on grain yield of jowar showed that the treatments, wheat straw (W.S.) + Azotobacter, wheat straw alone and sugarcane bagasse (S.B.) + Azotobacter gave significantly higher grain yields than control whereas W.S.+Azotobacter treatment gave significant increase in yield over Azotobacter alone. In studies using wheat as succeeding crop during the rabi 1975 season it was observed that the treatment W.S. + Azotobacter proved superior to other treatments in increasing the grain yield of wheat.
