Abstract

Experiments were conducted to study the effects of crop residue (CR) recycling and microbial culture application on the yield and nutrient uptake in field pea crop. The experiments were designed in factorial RBD with 15 treatments consisting of three crop residues and five microbial treatments to crop residue having two replications each. Application of paddy straw @ 5.0 t/ha and inoculating Trichoderma viridi with 1% nitrogen increased the crop yield by 11.75% over the control, enhanced the total nutrient uptake, and improved the soil’s properties. Thus, crop residue application with microbial inoculation and nitrogen supplementation can be an effective in situ residue management approach in field pea.
