The effect of continuous application of fertilizers and amendments on wheat yield and DTPA extractable micronutrients in an acid Alfisol during rabi (2016-17) was evaluated in field experiment at the research farm of the Department of Soil Science, CSKHPKV Palampur. This experiment was initiated during 1972 in randomized block design with eleven treatments which were replicated three times. The soil of the experimental area was silt loam and classified taxonomically as "Typic Hapludalf". The highest productivity of wheat was recorded in the treatment comprising 100 per cent NPK + FYM and was statistically comparable with 100 per cent NPK + lime. Continuous application of N alone resulted in zero yield and omission of K and S from the fertilization schedule also resulted in drastic reduction in the yield. In surface soil (0-0.15m), application of Zn along with 100 per cent NPK (T5 ) recorded the highest value (3.75 mg kg-1) of DTPA extractable Zn and combined use of FYM with optimal dose of NPK (T8 ) recorded the highest value of DTPA extractable Fe, Cu and Mn (38.0, 2.25 and 37.25 mg kg-1, respectively). The lowest value (1.08, 18.8, 1.32 and 17.90 mg kg-1) of DTPA extractable Zn, Fe, Cu and Mn, respectively, was recorded in control plot.Keywords

This study was undertaken in an on-going long-term fertilizer experiment, initiated during 1972-73 at Experimental Farm of Department of Soil Science, CSK HPKV Palampur to work out the relationship of soil health parameters with quality of maize in an acid Alfisol. The soil of the experimental site was silt loam and classified taxonomically as Typic Hapludalf. The experiment consisted of eleven treatments with varying levels of NPK fertilizers, and FYM & lime as amendments. Continuous application of fertilizers and amendments for forty-six years significantly influenced the yield of maize. The highest grain (46.5 q ha-1) and stover yield of maize (77.0 q ha-1) was recorded in the 100 per cent NPK + FYM treatment and was at par with 100 per cent NPK + lime. Continuous omission of S and K decreased the grain yield by 55 and 53 per cent, respectively, whereas regular application of N alone resulted in zero yield. Soil health parameters and grain quality traits were assessed and the relationship between soil health parameters and quality traits of maize grains was worked out. Correlation studies revealed that soil organic carbon exhibited a positive and significant relationship with non- reducing sugar (r = 0.737**). Similar positive relationship was found between porosity and non-reducing sugars (r =0.940**). There was a positive and significant relationship between dehydrogenase activity and reducing sugars (r = 0.866**). Invariably, bulk density exhibited negative and significant relationship with different quality traits of maize grains.Keywords

A field experiment was conducted at the Experimental Farm of Department of Agronomy of CSK Himachal Pradesh Krishi Vishvavidyalaya, Palampur (H.P.) during kharif 2019 to study the growth and performance of rice hybrids under varying fertility levels. The treatments consisted of four rice varieties (three hybrids viz., Arize 6129, Arize Swift, AZ 6508 and inbred HPR 2143) which were tested under five fertility levels viz., 50% recommended dose of fertilizer (RDF), 100% RDF (90:40:40), 150% RDF, 150% RDF + ZnSO4 @ 25 kg ha-1 and natural farming treatment. The trial was laid out in split plot design with fertility levels in main plot and rice varieties in sub plot and was replicated thrice. Plant height and dry matter accumulation were significantly influenced by fertility levels with highest values recorded with the application of highest dose of fertilizers along with zinc while significantly lower values recorded in natural farming treatment. Significantly higher values of crop growth rate (CGR) and relative growth rate (RGR) at both the stages (between 30-60 days and 60–90 days after transplanting, DAT) were recorded with the application of 150% RDF + ZnSO 4though this treatment was at par with the application of 150% RDF alone. Significantly lowest values of both these parameters at both the stages were recorded with the natural farming treatment. Varieties also differed significantly with HPR 2143 producing significantly taller plants while Arize Swift producing shorter plants. Hybrids accumulated more dry matter as compared to inbred HPR 2143 with AZ 6508 recording significantly higher value of this parameter. Among the varieties tested AZ 6508 recorded significantly higher values of CGR, RGR and NAR at both the stages of observation indicating higher potential of this hybrid.Keywords

The field experiment was conducted to study the effect of sowing time and nutrient management on performance of new genotype of Indian mustard (Brassica juncea (L.) Czernj. Cosson) at experimental farm of Department of Agronomy, CSK Himachal Pradesh Krishi Vishvavidyalaya, Palampur during Rabi 2019-2020. Soil of the experimental site was silty clay loam in texture, acidic in reaction, medium in organic carbon, low in available nitrogen, medium in available phosphorus and potassium. The experiment was laid out in factorial randomized block design with two factors replicated thrice. The treatments consisted of six nutrient management practices viz., Inorganic (RDF), Organic farming, Natural farming, Natural farming + 5 t FYM/ha, Natural farming + 7.5 t FYM/ha and Natural farming + 10 t FYM/ha and two dates of sowing (11th October and 26th October). Results revealed that early sown mustard crop produced significantly taller plants and other growth and development parameters viz., dry matter accumulation, emergence count, days to 50% flowering and days to physiological maturity. Seed yield, stover yield and biological yield were also high in case of early sown crop than late sown crop. Among nutrient management practices, application of recommended dose of fertilizers remained superior in terms of plant height, dry matter accumulation, emergence count, days to 50% flowering, days taken to physiological maturity, seed yield, stover yield and biological yield.Keywords
