Abstract

Nutrient management has been a major constraint in mungbean cultivation, resulting in huge economic losses to farmers. Field experiments for two consecutive years were conducted at Instructional Farm of College of Agriculture, Jodhpur to evaluate the effects of different levels of Farm Yard Manure (FYM), phosphorus and bio-inoculants on growth and yield performance of mungbean during 2019 and 2020. The results revealed that application of FYM @5 t ha-1 significantly enhanced plant height, dry matter accumulation, seed and stover yield as compared to without application of FYM. Meanwhile, aggregate levels of phosphorus up to 100% resulted significantly increased in all growth parameters, seed and stover yield as compared to control. Similarly, significant enhancement in growth parameters, seed and stover yields was observed with seed inoculation either with Enterobacter cloacae or Bacillus amyloliquefaciens over no-inoculation during 2019 and 2020, respectively.
