Abstract
The study was conducted during lait Rabi 2019-20 at ICAR- Krishi Vigyan Kendra, Haveri to Effect of nutrient Management on growth and yield of Brown top millet. The experiment was laid out in RCBD comprising of eight treatments replicated thrice. Studies revealed that the growth parameters, yield attributes and grain yield of Brown top millet differed significantly due to foliar application of NPK along with RDF and soil application of micronutrients along with RDF. The results indicated that the application of RDF + FYM 6t/ha + foliar nutrition of 19:19:19 @ 2% at 30 and 45 DAS recorded significantly higher plant height (69.75cm), number of tillers per plant and number of grains per plant (436) at harvest over the other nutrient levels. And also on par with Foliar nutrition of 19:19:19 @ 2% at 30 and 45 DAS + FYM 6 t/ha) In grain yield (7.65 q /ha) and straw yield (14.52 q/ha) recorded significant higher with application of T5 and also on par with RDF of crop + FYM 6 t/ha) over the other treatments levels. The gross returns, net returns and BC ratio were also higher with the same treatments (Rs37865, Rs.21365 and 2.39 respectively) as compared to all other treatments and absolute control.
