Abstract: The agronomic investigation entitled, “Performance of summer green gram (Vigna radiata L.) to fertilizer levels” was undertaken at Post Graduate Research Farm, Agronomy Division of Rajarshee Chhatrapati Shahu Maharaj College of Agriculture, Kolhapur (M.S.), India during summer, 2019. The experiment was laid out in a factorial randomized block design were replicated thrice with twelve treatment combinations comprises three NP fertilizer levels NP1-75% of RDF, NP2-100% of RDF and NP3-125% of RDF and four potassium levels as a K0- 00 K2O Kg ha-1, K1- 15 K2O Kg ha-1, K2- 20 K2O Kg ha-1 and K3- 25 K2O Kg ha-1. Yield and economics of summer green were influenced significantly by different NP fertilizer levels. The grain yield (15.14q ha-1) and stover yield (32.99 q ha-1) of green gram were recorded significantly highest with treatment NP3 (125% of RDF) and which was followed by NP2 (100% of RDF) (14.21 q ha-1 grain and 31.55 q ha-1 stover yield respectively), Nutrient content viz., NPK (%) in grain and straw of green gram were found non-significant with different NP fertilizer levels. NPK uptake (kg ha-1) by green were recorded significantly higher with treatment NP3 (125% of RDF) and which was found at par with treatment NP2 (100% of RDF) among NP fertilizer levels. Among the potassium levels application of K3- 25 K2O Kg ha-1 was recorded significantly maximum grain yield (15.19 q ha-1) and stover yield (33.32 q ha-1) however, it was found at par with K2- 25 K2O Kg ha-1 (14.67 q ha-1 grain and 32.25q ha-1 stover yield respectively). NPK content (%) in grain and straw of green gram were remain unaffected due to different potassium levels. NPK uptake (kg ha-1) was recorded significantly more with treatment K2- 25 K2O Kg ha-1 and which was found comparable with treatment K2- 25 K2O Kg ha-1.
