Influence of herbicides applied with or without manures on chemical properties of soil in pearl millet
Author(s): Damor VG, Kharadi RR and Patel RB
Abstract: The field experiment was carried out on the “Effect of herbicides applied with and without manures on chemical properties of soil in pearl millet (Pennisetum glaucum L.)” during summer season of the year 2011-12. Among manures, FYM was applied @ 10 t ha-1 and vermicompost applied @ 3 t ha-1 and compared with no manure (Control). atrazine was applied @ 500 and 1000 g ha-1 and oxyflourfen applied @ 80 and 100 g ha-1 as pre-emergence and compared with interculturing (IC) fb hand weeding (HW) carried out at 20 and 40 DAS (non-chemical control). Organic carbon content, total N and available P2O5 of soil were significantly higher recorded with the application of FYM @ 10 t ha-1 at one and 30 DAS which was at par with application of vermicompost @ 3 t ha-1. Significantly higher available K2O content was recorded with the addition of vermicompost @ 3 t ha-1 and was at par with application of FYM @ 10 t ha-1 at one and 30 DAS.
