Abstract: An experiment entitled “Influence of land configurations and integrated nutrient management on pearl millet (Pennisetum glaucum L.) under rainfed conditions†was conducted during kharif season of the year 2016 at Bajra Research Scheme Farm, College of Agriculture, Dhule (Maharashtra).
The experiment was laid out in split plot design with three replications. There were twelve treatment combinations. Three treatments of land configurations viz., flat bed, ridges and furrow and broad bed furrow assigned in main plots and four treatments of nutrient management viz., RDF (60:30:30 kg NPK ha-1), RDF + 5 t FYM ha-1, 50% RDF + 50% RDN through FYM and 100% RDN through FYM in sub plots. In general, the close scrutiny of the data revealed that, at harvest growth attributes like maximum plant population, plant height, number of functional leaves, leaf area, dry matter and total numbers of tillers per plant were found to be superior in broad bed furrow and were on par with ridges and furrow.
