Effect of Postmethanated Distillery Spentwash on the growth and yield of Bhendi
Author(s): MP Sugumaran and M Maheswari
Abstract: A field experiment was conducted at Amaravathy sugars, Udumelpet to study the effect of spentwash on Bhendi crop. Results revealed that the treatment applied with spentwash (100 % N through post methanated distillery spentwash) increased the yield of bhendi. The highest fruit yield of 9,884.00 kg ha-1 and dry matter production of 2,341.00 kg ha-1 were recorded in the same treatment. The per cent increase over the control was 15 and 28 per cent, respectively. The enormous quantities of plant nutrients present in spentwash offers an excellent opportunity to use it as a liquid fertilizer along with irrigation water, thus enabling the farmers to save cost incurred on fertilizers and at the same time achieve higher yields of crops.
