Effect of panchgavya on quality parameters of mungbean [Vigna radiata (L.) Wilczek]

A field experiment was conducted at Research Farm of Suresh Gyan Vihar University, Jaipur (Rajasthan) during kharif 2023 on sandy loam soil consisting two factor of panchgavya i.e. application doses (control, 2%, 4%, 6%, 8% and 10%) and application stages (branching, flowering and branching+flowering) which were laid out in a split plot design. In main plot application doses was taken and in sub plot application stages was taken. The mungbean variety “RMG-492” was used for experiment. Results clearly showed that application of panchgavya @ 4% significantly increased quality of mungbean i.e. nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium content in seed and straw and their total uptake and protein content as compare to application of panchgavya @ 2%, 6%, 8% and 10% where as lowest value recorded no panchgavya application (control). Further, application of panchgavya on branching+flowering recorded maximum nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium content in seed and straw and their total uptake and protein content as compare to application of panchgavya at branching and flowering stage alone. However; there were no interaction was found between panchgavya application doses and application stages.
