Author(s): TR Kachave, HK Kausadikar, MG Deshmukh
Abstract: A field experiment was planned and conducted during rabi 2010-11 to evaluate the “Effect of speciality fertilizer on growth, yield and quality of chickpeaâ€. The field experiment was conducted at the departmental research farm of Vasantrao Naik Marathwada Agricultural University, Parbhani. The experiment was laid out in randomized block design with three replications. There were eight treatments comprising of K levels and zinc viz; T1- Only Recommended Dose of Fertilizer (RDF) through soil (25:50:0 NPK kg ha-1), T2- RDF + water spray, T3 –RDF + 1% Starter (2 sprays) and 1% Booster (2 sprays), T4- RDF + 1.5% Starter (2 sprays) and 1.5% Booster (2 sprays), T5- RDF + 2% Starter (2 sprays) and 2% Booster (2 sprays), T6- RDF + 1% MS Govt. The results emerged out clearly indicated that application of RDF + 1.5% Starter and 1.5% Booster (2 sprays each) in their graded doses increased biological yield 45.88 q ha-1 of chickpea. The grain yield of chickpea significantly of 14.74 q ha-1 and dry matter yield 31.14 q ha-1.
