abstract
The present investigation entitled, “Effect of integrated nutrient management on growth yield and ecomics of late sown wheat (Triticum aestivum L.)” was carried out at Research farm of the department of agriculture, Maharishi Markandeshwar university, Mullana, Ambala during Rabi season of 2022.The experiment was laid out in randomized block design using wheat variety HD -3086 with eight treatments viz. T₁- control,T₂-50% RDF +40 Kg Sulphur/ha, T₃- 50% RDF +25 KgZnSo₄ /ha,T₄- 75% RDF, T₅- 75% RDF +25 Kg ZnSo₄/ha+40 Kg Sulphur/ha, T₆-100%RDF, T₇-75% RDF+25% N through FYM + Azotobacter, T₈- 100% RDF + 25% N through Vermicompost +25 Kg ZnSo₄/ha. The treatments were replicated thrice. On the basis of results obtained all the growth and yield parameters were recorded best with the treatment of T₈-100% RDF + 25% N through Vermicompost +25 Kg ZnSo₄/ha having grain yield of 48.82 qt/ha and highest straw yield of 60.07 qt/ha among the all other treatments. The benefit cost ratio was also higher 2.30 in the treatment T₈- 100% RDF + 25%N through Vermicompost +25 Kg ZnSo₄/ha.
