Abstract: A field investigation was conducted at agronomy farm, Dr. P.D.K.V, Akola during rabi season of 2016. soil of experimental plot was clayey in texture, medium in organic carbon, moderate in available nitrogen, medium in available phosphorus and high in potassium. The wheat crop was sown on 22nd November 2016 and harvested in 13th March, 2017. Overall the weather during growing season was favourable. Experiment was laid out in Randomised Block Design (RBD) with ten (10) treatments replicated thrice. The gross and net plot sizes were 5.4 m x 7.0 m and 4.68 m x 6.16 m, respectively. Treatments include control (T1), Compost @ 8.5 t ha-1 (T2), Soil application of Azotobacter and PSB @ 10.0 kg ha-1 (T3), Liquid Organic NPK three foliar sprays (T4), Liquid Organic K foliar spray (T5), Compost + Soil application of Azotobacter and PSB + Three foliar sprays of liquid organic NPK (T6), compost + Three foliar sprays of liquid organic NPK + One foliar spray of liquid organic potash (T7), Soil application of Azotobacter and PSB + Three foliar sprays of liquid organic NPK + One foliar spray of liquid organic potash (T8), Compost + Soil application of Azotobacter and PSB + Three foliar sprays of liquid organic NPK + One foliar spray of liquid organic potash (T9), Compost + Soil application of Azotobacter and PSB (T10).
Result indicated that grain and straw yield was significantly influenced by treatments applied with compost + soil application of Azotobacter and PSB + 3 foliar sprays of liquid organic NPK + one foliar spray of liquid organic potash. correlation indicated that tmax i.e. maximum temperature showed significant and positive corelationship with grain yield similarly, wind speed during the crop growing period also showed positive and significant correlation with grain yield other weather fators didnot show any association ship with grain yield. Whereas, straw yield did not show any significant association ship during the experimentation.
