Abstract:

Field experiment was conducted during kharif season of 2019 at Anbil Dharmalingam Agriculture College and Research Institute, Trichy to find out the effect of different land configuration and nutrient management on green gram under sodic condition. The experiment was laid out in factorial randomized block design with three replications. The land configuration factor consists of the three treatments viz., flat bed, ridges and furrows and broad bed furrow system. The second factor nutrient management comprising of five treatments like 100% RDF + 1% DAP, 100% RDF + 1% MAP, 75% RDF + 2% MAP, 100% RDF + 1% MKP, 75% RDF + 2% MKP. The results revealed that significantly higher number of pods per plant, number of seeds per plant and yield were recorded under broad bed furrow over farmer’s practice of flatbed method. Among the nutrient management practices N 4 - 100% RDF + 1% MKP  foliar spray twice at flower initiation and pod formation stage significantly highest growth parameters (pods per plant, number of seeds per plant, 100 seed weight, grain yield and haulm yield) were observed than farmer’s practice. Results indicated that broad bed furrow with nutrient management practice of 100% RDF + 1% MKP has the potential to enhance the productivity green gram under sodic condition.
