Effect of different manures on growth, attributes of wheat (Triticum aestivum L.)

The field experiment entitled “Effect of Different Manures and Fertilizers on Productivity of Wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) & Soil Properties.” will be carried out at Agricultural Research Farm, College of Agriculture, Indore during rabi season of 2022-23.in randomized block design (RBD) with three replications. Along with 8 treatments T₁ 100% RDF (120:60:40 Kg/ha of N,P2O5 and K2O respectively), T₂- RDF with10% equivalent N substituted by FYM from basal dose of N, T₃- RDF with 10% equivalent N substituted by Vermicompost from basal dose of N,T₄-RDF with 10% equivalent N substituted by Poultry manure frombasal dose of N, T₅- RDF with 10% equivalent N substituted by Neem cake from basal dose of N, T₆-RDF with 10% equivalent N substituted by Karanj cake from basal dose of N, T₇-RDF with 10% equivalent N substituted by Castor cake from basaldose of N and T₈-Control(90% of recommended Nitrogen with recommended P and K)plant height was found in treatment T₁ (100% RDF (120:60:40 Kg/ha of N, P2O5 and K2O respectively)) which was at par with the treatment T₂ (RDF with 10% equivalent N substituted by FYM from basal dose of N), maximum (58.18) number of tillers/meter row length was found in treatment T₁ (100% RDF (120:60:40 Kg/ha of N, P2O5 and K2O respectively)) which was at par with the treatment T₂ (RDF with 10% equivalent N substituted by FYM from basal dose of N) (57.25), T₄ (RDF with 10% equivalent N substituted by Poultry manure from basal dose of N) (53.51) and T₃ (RDF with 10% equivalent N substituted by Vermicompost from basal dose of N) (51.38). The significantly lowest number of tillers/meter row length (38.65) was observed in treatment T₈ (Control (90% of recommended Nitrogen with recommended P and K)). The higher dry matter accumulation per plant in treatments T₁, T₂, T₃, and T₄ can be attributed to their fertilization approaches.
