abstract
A research experiment was conducted during kharif, 2019 & 2020 at Krishi Vigyan Kendra, Reddipalli, Anantapuramu campus of Acharya N.G. Ranga Agricultural University to investigate the effect of tillage practices and nutrient management practices on yield along with nutrient uptake in groundnut. Research work was conducted in a split-plot design with three replications. The results indicated that pod yields were highest with vertical tillage with chisel plough compared with mould board plough and conventional tillage (farmers practice). Irrespective of tillage practices, nutrient management practices significantly influencing the pod yield in two years of study. 125% RDF proved to be the best treatment compared to control and which was similar result with 100% RDF. Similarly NPK uptake was highest with vertical tillage with chisel plough over other tillage practices. Nutrient uptake was also highest with 125% RDF compared to other nutrient management practices.
