The experiment was conducted during the
Rabi season, 2024, at Crop Research Farm, Department of Agronomy, Naini Agricultural Institute, Sam Higginbottom University of Agriculture Technology and Sciences, Prayagraj, Uttar Pradesh, to study the “Effect of Nutrient on Growth and Yield of Buckwheat (
Fagopyum esculentum L.)
The treatments consist of different levels of Nitrogen (30, 40, 50) kg/ha through Phosphorus (15, 20, 25) kg/ha and Sulphur (20) kg/ha will be constant. The result reported that treatment 4 [Nitrogen 40 kg/ha + Phosphorus 15 kg/ha] significantly influenced the highest plant height (51.10 cm), maximum plant dry weight (5.79) g, and maximum number of achene/plant (47.20). It is also observed that the maximum seed yield (1.77) t/ha and maximum stover yield (4.33) t/ha were obtained with the application of [
Nitrogen 40 kg/ha + Phosphorus 15 kg/ha]. However, the maximum gross return (106280.95 INR/ha), net return (60672 INR/ha) and benefit cost ratio (1.33) were also obtained under the use of [Nitrogen 40 kg/ha + Phosphorus 15 kg/ha].
