Abstract Combined application of biochar with fertilizers has been used to increase soil fertility and crop yield. However, the coupling mechanisms through which improves yield at field scale time span over affects carbon nitrogen transformation are still little known. In this study, a long-term trial (2013–2019) was performed in brown planting maize. Six treatments were designed: CK—control; N...

Aims: To evaluate the effect of different levels NPK and micronutrients for plant growth, bulb quality Onion (Allium cepa) in NFT system Hydroponics. Study Design: Randomized Block design. Place Duration Study: The experiment was carried out 2022 at shadenet Department horticulture, Naini Agricultural Institute, SHUATS, Prayagraj. Methodology: conducted Design with 7+1 (Control) 3 replications....

Supplementing the nutrient requirement of crops through organic manures plays a key role in sustaining soil fertility, and crop productivity and reducing use of fossil fuels. Field experiments were conducted for 2 years at two different locations (i.e. Lucknow and Pantnagar) in Uttar Pradesh, India. The objectives of the study were to assess the herb and essential oil yields of Japanese mint (M...

Drying is an important process in the production of NPK fertilizers. The average water content August 2021 – January 2022 was 1.64%, still exceeding a good < 1.5%. high moisture resulted that review are needed drying through rotary dryer evaluation and observation by creating multiple linear regression math. thermal efficiency calculated based on actual data, which 73%, do not decrease signi...

The investigation on cluster bean with application of integrated nutrient management comprised 12 treatments three level NPK, two levels PSB and Rhizobium in factorial randomized block design. treatment T12 has shown the significant results when applied 100% NPK among different combinations. Growth parameters viz., plant height (90.96 cm), number nodules plant-1(59.48), branches plant-1 (2.66) ...

The quality of soil organic matter plays a central role in structure, carbon sequestration and pollutant immobilization. effect 16–23 years fertilization on the was studied field experiments at ten experimental sites Central Europe. Soil samples were collected 2016 after barley harvest. Six crops rotated: pea–canola–winter wheat–spring barley–beet/potato–spring barley. treatments studied: unfer...

Currently the world is moving towards organic production of crops for the discovered and envisaged advantages. Despite this, farmers are faced with the challenges of the bulkiness of organic fertilizer to be used and further gains that could be accrued from it even if sacrifice of using it is made. To be quite sure of the appropriate fertilizer type to be used in improving quality as well as th...
