Abstract:

A field experiment was conducted at Horticulture farm, Department of Horticulture, SHUATS, Allahabad. The experiment consisted of two Bulky organic manures (FYM and Vermicompost), two liquid organic supplements (Fish Amino Acid (FAA) and Panchagavya) and Biofertilizers [Rhizobium and Phosphate Solubilizing Bacteria (PSB)]. The result revealed that treatment T14 (Vermicompost + Fish Amino Acid + Panchagavya + Biofertilizers) was found to be best in terms of plant height (56.17 cm), number of leaves (57.07), number of branches (28.93), number of root nodules (21.73), length of pods (36.84 cm), width of pods (0.69 cm), days of germination (3.3), number of pods per plant (37.70), number of seeds per pod (14.10), pod weight (17.63), pod yield (254.03 q/ha) (4.7) followed by T13 (Vermicompost + Panchagavya + Biofertilizers) with plant height (56.04 cm), number of leaves (56.93), number of branches (27.67), number of root nodules (20.37), length of pods (36.19 cm), width of pods (0.66 cm), days of germination (3.7), number of pods per plant (37.17), number of seeds per pod (13.93), pod weight (17.10), pod yield (240 q/ha).


Keywords: Cowpea, Organic manure, FYM, Vermicompost, Panchagavya, Fish amino acid, PSB and Rhizobium.
