Abstract:
The field experiment was conducted to study the effect of integrated nutrient management modules on wheat with variety NW-1014, at student’s instructional farm, Narendra Deva university of Agriculture & Technology Narendra Nagar Faizabad in during Rabi season of 2014-15 and 2015-16. The experiment consists of fourteen treatments viz. T₁: RDF (150:60:40 kg ha^-1 NPK), T₂ : RDF + 20kg ZnSO₄ ha^-1, T₃ : RDF + 5 t FYM ha^-1, T₄ : RDF + 2.5 t VC ha^-1, T₅: RDF + 5 t FYM + 20 kg ZnSO₄ ha^-1, T₆: RDF +2.5 t VC + 20 kg ZnSO₄ ha^-1, T₇: 75% RDF, T₈: 75 % RDF +20kg ZnSO₄ ha^-1, T₉: 75 % RDF + 10 t FYM ha^-1, T₁₀: 75 % RDF + 5 t VC ha^-1, T₁₁: 75 % RDF +10 t FYM + 20 kg ZnSO₄ ha^-1, T₁₂: 75 % RDF + 5 t VC +20 kg ZnSO₄ ha^-1, T₁₃: 125 % RDF, T₁₄: 125 % RDF + 20 kg ZnSO₄ ha^-1. The results revealed that the application of 100% recommended dose of fertilizer (RDF) i.e.150:60:40 N:P:K kg ha^-1 + vermicompost @ 2.5 t ha^-1 + ZnSO₄ @ 20 kg ha^-1 produced highest grain yield (50.80 q ha^-1), straw yield (71.07 q ha^-1), protein content (11.71 %), net return (₹ 68538.48 ha^-1) and B:C ratio (2.71%).
