Abstract

The present investigation was conducted to understand the effect of integrated nutrient management on the growth and seed yield of the cowpea variety Pusa Komal. The investigation was carried out at Field of Horticulture Department, School of Agriculture Science, Technology and Research, Sardar Patel University, Balaghat, (M.P.) during the Kharif season of 2023. The experiment was laid out in a Randomized Block Design (RBD) with 9 treatments comprising three replications each. The overall results obtained from this present investigation revealed that the application of T1 (RDF 100% i.e. NPK 25:50:25) showed the better performance for vegetative growth (plant height, number of branches per plant), yield attributes (number of pods per plant, pod weight, pod yield) of cowpea followed by T6 (75% RDF + 25% VC). T1 also recorded the highest net return and benefit cost ratio. Thus, integrated use of nutrients may be suggested for higher crop productivity along with over all betterment of okra under Balaghat (M.P.) conditions.
