Influence of modified natural farming application on nutrient content and uptake of maize under maize + cowpea intercropping system


Shubham Jamwal, Meenakshi Gupta, NP Thakur, Rohit Sharma and RS Sudan

The aim of this study was to evaluate the nutrient content (nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium) and their uptake of maize crop compared to the modified natural farming systems of nutrition. The field experiment was conducted during kharif 2022 at Research Farm of Centre of Organic and Natural Farming, Sher-e-Kashmir University of Agricultural Sciences and Technology of Jammu, main campus, Chatha. The experiment was comprised of seventeen treatments which were laid out in randomized block design with three replications. The treatment consisted of 50% N through FYM + Seed treatment with Beejamrit + Soil application Jeevamrit + Foliar application of Jeevamrit (T17) shows maximum nutrient content and significantly highest nutrient uptake. The study conclusively indicated that modified natural farming application of Maize + Cowpea intercropping system the treatment (50% N through FYM + Seed treatment with Beejamrit + Soil application Jeevamrit + Foliar application of Jeevamrit) helped in enhancing the nutritional content and nutrient uptake.
