Chickpea, Customized fertilizer, Economics, Nutrient uptake of NPKS and ZnAbstract
A field experiment was conducted during the winter (rabi) seasons of 201011 and 201112 at Raipur, Chhattisgarh, to study the effect of customized fertilizer (11 : 27 : 0 : 6.6 : 0.5% of NPKS and Zn) on performance of chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.). Different doses of customized fertilizer were used in the study. The customized fertilizer (CF)combination of N, P, K, S and Zn mixturesignificantly influenced yield attributes, seed yield and nu- trient uptake. The highest seed yield (2.2 t/ha), stover yield (2.7 t/ha) and the highest net returns ( 42,883/ha) were obtained with the application of 150% CF dose. The uptake of N P K and Zn was also higher under this treat- ment. However, in terms of benefit: cost (B:C) ratio, application of 100% CF and 150% CF resulted in equal value, i.e. 2.9. Hence application of 100% CF dose can be considered as optimum, as it gave higher B:C ratio.References
