RÉSUMÉ
Aim: The objective of the research was to study the effect of Integrated Nutrient Management on the yield attributing parameters of kharif onion.Study Design: The field experiment was carried out in Randomised Block Design (RBD).Place and Duration of Study: The experiment was conducted at the Research Farm of the Department of Vegetable Science, Chandra Shekhar Azad University of Agriculture & Technology, Kanpur U.P during the kharif seasons of 2021-22 and 2022-23.Methodology: An experiment was carried out during Kharif season in the years, of 2021-22 and 2022-23 both the year same time at Vegetable Research Farm, Department of Vegetable Science, Chandra Shekhar Azad University of Agriculture and Technology, Kalyanpur, Kanpur. The experiment was laid out in randomized block design with three replications. The treatments consisted of T1- Control: T2- 100% RDF (NPK @ 120:60:80 kg/ha; T3- 75% RDF+ FYM 6 t/ha: T4- 75%RDF+ Vermicompost@2 t/ ha; T5- 75%RDF+FYM @ 3t/ha+vermicompost@1 t/ha ;T6- 75% RDF + FYM @ 3 t/ha + Vermicompost @ 1t/ha+ Biofertilizer (Azotobacter + PSB @ 5 kg/ha each):T7? 50% RDF + FYM @ 12t/ha; T8-50% RDF + Vermicompost @ 4t/ha: T9- 50%RDF+ FYM @ 6t/ha + Vermicompos @ 2t/ha: T10- 50%RDF + FYM @ 6t/ha + Vermicompost @ 2t/ha + Biofertilizer (Azotobacter + PSB @ 5 kg/ha each).Results: Results revealed that the treatment T10 (50% RDF +FYM @ 6 t/ha + Vermicompost @ 2t/ha+ Biofertilizer (Azotobacter + PSB @ 5kg/ha each) performed better with respect to yield attributing parameters characters such as Average bulb weight, A, B, C grade bulb percentage, days takes to harvesting, bolting percentage of bulb and double bulb Percentage.Conclusion: The study underscores the crucial need to shift towards Integrated Nutrient Management (INM), incorporating both organic and inorganic fertilizers. This transition is essential to protect soil fertility, maintain ecosystem health, and ensure sustainable food production for future generations.

Aim: The objective of the research was to study the effect of Integrated Nutrient Management on the vegetative growth of sprouting broccoli (Brassica Oleracea L. Var. italica) Var. Green Magic.Study Design: The field experiment was conducted in Randomised Block Design (RBD).Place and Duration of Study: The experiment was conducted at the Research Farm of the Department of Vegetable Science, Chandra Shekhar Azad University of Agriculture & Technology, Kanpur U.P during the Rabi seasons of 2021-22 and 2022-23.Methodology: During bed preparation, the required quantity of farmyard manure (FYM), vermicompost and biofertilizers was mixed into the soil in individual specified plots according to the treatment. The treatments included T0: Control, T1: 100% RDF @ 120: 80: 60, N: P: K (kg/ha), T2: 75% RDF + 25% N through FYM, T3: 75% RDF + 25% N through Vermicompost, T4: 75% RDF + 25% N through FYM + Biofertilizer, T5: 75% RDF + 25% N through Vermicompost + Biofertilizer, T6: 75% RDF + 12.5% N through FYM + 12.5% N through Vermicompost, T7: 75% RDF + 12.5% N through FYM + 12.5% N through Vermicompost + Biofertilizer, T8: 50% RDF + 50% N through FYM, T9: 50% RDF + 50% N through Vermicompost, T10: 50% RDF + 50% N through FYM + Biofertilizer, T11: 50% RDF + 50% N through Vermicompost + Biofertilizer, T12: 50% RDF + 25% N through FYM + 25% N through Vermicompost and T13: 50% RDF + 25% N through FYM + 25% N through Vermicompost + Biofertilizer. Observations were recorded on plant height (cm) and plant spread (cm) at 30 DAT, 60 DAT and at maturity and on stalk length (cm) and stalk diameter (cm) at maturity.Results: The treatment T11: 50% RDF + 50% N through Vermicompost + Biofertilizer outperformed all the other treatments in terms of plant height (cm), plant spread (cm), stalk length (cm) and stalk diameter (cm).Conclusion: The study emphasizes the vital necessity of transitioning to INM with organic and inorganic fertilizers to preserve soil fertility, ecosystem health, and sustainable food production for future generations.
RÉSUMÉ
A trial was conducted at the Horticulture Research Farm (HRF), Department of Horticulture, Naini Agricultural Institute, SHUATS, Prayagraj, Uttar Pradesh during winter 2022 to study the “Response of NPK and Organic Manures on Growth and Root, Yield of Carrot (Daucus carota L.) cv. Nantes”. Results revealed that treatment T2 100% NPK emerged as superior over all other treatment combination in terms of Plant height 59.05 cm, Fresh weight of leaves per plant 137.18, Root yield per plot 4.30 kg, Yield 426.40 quintal/ha-1 T3 75%NPK + FYM number of leaves 19.88,T5 75% NPK + PM Fresh weight of plant 132.04 gm, Length of root 23.75 cm, Diameter of root 5.13 cm T7 50% NPK + VC 116.98 gm Showed higher B:C ratio (5.67) compared with the other treatments under Prayagraj Argo-Climatic conditions.
