----Abstract
A field experiment was conducted at Berhampur during rainy ( kharif) season of 2003 and 2004 on loamy sand soil to study the effect of integrated use of FYM, recommended dose of fertilizer (RDF) i.e. 20-17.4-33.3 kg N-P-K/ha, Rhizobium, gypsum (250 kg/ha) and boron (1 kg/ha) on performance of groundnut ( Arachis hypogaea L.) and soil fertility. Results revealed that application of FYM + 75% RDF + Rhizobium + gypsum + boron re- corded significantly higher pods/plant, 100 pod weight resulting in higher pod (2.66 tonne/ha), kernel yield (1.92 tonne/ha) and nutrient uptake (151.4-17.0-58.6-0.8-0.07 kg N-P-K-S-B/ha). This treatment also had generated maximum net return (Rs. 22,000/ha). The increase in pod yield of this treatment was 65 and 14% higher overReferences
