Effect on Organic Manure and Inorganic Fertilizers on Productivity Parameters and Quality Traits of Wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) under Central Plain Zone of Uttar Pradesh

A field trial was conducted on sandy loam soil having low status of organic carbon and accessible nitrogen, medium in accessible phosphorous and high in accessible potassium at pot house of department of Soil Science and Agricultural Chemistry of C.S.A.U.A&T, Kanpur (campus) under Indo-Gangetic Plain zone of Uttar Pradesh, amid Rabi season of 2021-22. The experiment comprised of 9 treatment combinations in randomized block design with three replications. Wheat variety K-1006 was grown with the recommended agronomic practices. Recommended dose of fertilizer (R.D.F.) i.e., NPK @ 120:60:40 ha-1 and FYM @ 10 ton ha-1 were applied. On the premise of the comes about exuded from the present investigation, it might be concluded that application of 100% RDF+FYM+ S20+ Zn5 (T9) significantly recorded maximum grain yield, straw yield, biological yield and harvest index viz. 57.65 q ha-1, 88.20 q ha-1, 145.85 q ha-1 and 39.52 % respectively. And among the quality traits maximum protein content 12.75 % and lysine content 3.10 % was recorded also associated with application of 100% RDF+FYM+ S20+ Zn5 (T9). The present investigation clearly points out the significance of balanced use of nutrients including FYM in wheat for improving the productivity and quality of wheat crop.
