Abstract
Field experiments were conducted during kharif seasons of 2007, 2008 and 2009 on sesame cv. JLT-7 in deep black soil of Mamurabad farm, Oilseed Research Station,Jalgaon, Maharashtra to find out appropriate combination of organic and inorganic sources of nutrient with bio-inoculants. The organic sources (FYM, vermicompost and castor cake) were integrated with nitrogen fertilizer and biofertilizer (Azospirillum and Phosphorus solubilizing bacteria) and bioagents (Trichoderma viride and Psuedomonas fluorescens). The experimental result showed that, application of 75% recommended dose of N (37.5 kg/ha) along with 2.5 ton of Castor cake or FYM in combination with biofertilizer/bioinoclants was found to be not only promising for yield maximization but also for realizing higher returns under rainfed condition of North Maharashtra region.
