A field experiment was conducted at Research Farm of Fodder Section, CSK HPKV, Palampur during Rabi 2018-19 to assess the effect of different nutrient management practices on nutrient content, their uptake and quality of wheat in an ongoing study of sorghum + pearl millet – wheat cropping sequence initiated from Kharif 2018. Ten nutrient management treatments were tested in randomized block design with three replications. Integrated nutrient management i.e. 50 per cent recommended N + 10 t/ha FYM + 10 per cent Jeevamrit and 50 per cent recommended N + 10 t/ha FYM + 5 per cent Jeevamrit and recommended NPK through inorganic sources behaving alike resulted in higher nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium content and their uptake in grain and straw of wheat than other treatments comprised of organics (10 t/ha FYM + Jeevamrit) and natural farming (Beejamrit + Jeevamrit and Jeevamrit) systems of nutrition. Improvement in quality of wheat in respect of crude protein content and crude protein yield was also noticed with integrated nutrient management and recommended NPK over other treatments.
