Abstract: Field experiment was conducted during kharif, 2017 to study the effects of nutrient management practices on yield attributes and yield of pearl millet intercropped in Melia dubia based agri-silvi system. The experiment was laid out in randomized block design with three replication and eight treatments viz., T1- Control (no fertilizer and manure), T2-100% RDF (80-40-30 NPK kg ha-1) through normal urea, T3-100% RDF through neem coated urea, T4-75% RD N + 25% N Poultry manure, T5-75% RD N + 25% N FYM, T6-75% RD N + Pongamia green leaf manure @ 10 t ha-1, T7-75% RD N + Azotobacter @ 500 g ha-1, T8-Sole crop without trees (100% RDF). Results of the experiment showed that sole crop without trees recorded significantly higher yield attributes, grain yield and stover yield followed by 100% RDF through neem coated urea. But, among organic sources, application of 75% RD N + Pongamia green leaf manure @ 10 t ha-1 significantly influenced the yield attributes, grain yield and stover yield of pearl millet in Melia dubia based agri-silvi system followed by 75% RDF + 25% N through Poultry manure.
