Abstract:

A experiment was carried out on twenty four farmer’s fields to study the response of major nutrients NPKS on soybean-wheat, soybean-chickpea and cotton-fallow crops sequences in Central Vidarbha Zone (Nagpur) Mahrashtra during the year 2018-19. A set of eight treatments comprises of no NPK, 100 % N, 100 % N + 100 % P, 100 % N + 100 % K, 100 % N + 100 % P + 100 % K, 100 % N + 100 % P + 100 % K + 100 % Sulphur, use of organic manure / bio-fertilizers and farmers practice after categorization in initial similar factors by R statistical method analysis. Result indicated that application of recommended NPK + Sulphur recorded significantly higher yields in soybean (1302 kg ha-1)– wheat (2042.69 kg ha-1), soybean (1464.03 kg ha-1) – chickpea (1654.99 kg ha-1) and cotton (1889.35 kg ha-1) crop, respectively. Similarly, the total increase in monitory returns by 10, 13 and 10 percent and net returns of Rs. 88645 ha-1, 116358 ha-1 and 100135 ha-1 under soybean–wheat, soybean – chickpea and cotton – fallow sequential cropping system, respectively.
