Influence of different spacing and nutrient sources on yield and economic of Zaid finger millet (Eleusine coracana (L.) Gaertn) under eastern UP condition


Author(s): Manojgowda BS, Rajesh Singh and Wasim Khan

Abstract: A field experiment was conducted during Zaid season 2020 at Crop Research Farm (CRF), Department of Agronomy, SHUATS, Prayagraj (UP) on sandy loam soil to investigate the influence of different spacing and nutrient sources on yield and economic of Zaid finger millet (Eleusine coracana (L.) Gaertn) under eastern UP condition. The treatments consisted of spacing viz., 20 cm x 10 cm, 30 cm x 10 cm and 40 cm x 10 cm and nutrient sources viz., 100% RDN, 100% N through vermicompost and 50% RDN + 50% N through vermicompost whose effect is observed on finger millet (var. Godra-OT). The experiment was laid out in randomized block design with nine treatments replicated thrice. Study revealed that spacing of 20 cm x 10 cm + 50% RDN + 50% N through vermicompost was recorded significantly higher grain yield (2.74 t/ha) and biological yield (7.41 t/ha) as compared to all the treatment combinations. The economic analysis clearly indicates that higher B:C ratio (1.90) recorded with treatment of spacing 20 cm x 10 cm + 50% RDN + 50% N through vermicompost as compared to all treatment combinations.
