• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

The field experiment was conducted at UAS, Dharwad, India. Among the sources of sulphur, the application of bentonite recorded significantly higher grain yield (44.67 q ha-1), dry fodder yield (9.06 t ha-1), crude protein content (8.3 %) and sulphur uptake (20.73 kg ha-1) when compared to the application of gypsum and single super phosphate. It also recorded significantly higher gross returns (Rs.84990 ha-1), net returns (Rs.42270 ha-1) and B:C ratio (1.99). Among levels of sulphur, the application of 30 kg S ha-1 recorded significantly higher grain yield (44.91 q ha-1), dry fodder yield (9.29 t ha-1), crude protein content (8.3%) and sulphur uptake (20.14 kg ha-1). It also recorded significantly higher gross returns (Rs. 85640 ha-1), net returns (Rs. 43440 ha-1) and B:C ratio (2.03) when compared to application of 10 and 20 kg S ha-1.
