Description |
An experiment was conducted to assess the economic feasibility of various levels of organic sources to the crop production of coriander (Coriandrum sativum L.) during the Rabi season of 2011-12 at the main experiment station, Department of Vegetable Science, Narendra Dev Universit7y of Agriculture and Technology, Narendra Nagar (Kumarganj), Faizabad (U.P.). The experiment was initiated with eight treatments T1 (FYM 100 % @ 10 t/ha), T2 (vermicompost 100 % @ 5 t/ha), T3 (FYM 50 % 5t/ha) + vermicompost 50 per cent (2.5t/ha), T4 (FYM 25 % 2.5t/ha) + vermicompost 75 per cent (3.75t/ha), T5 (FYM75 % 7.5t/ha) + vermicompost 25 per cent (1.25t/ha), T6 (of FYM @ 5 t/ha + Azospirillum @ 1.5 kg/ha), T7 (Recommended dose of fertilizers 60:30:30 kg NPK/ha) and T8 (control). From over all experimental results it is concluded that higher economic return (63030.00 Rs./ha) was obtained from higher coriander yield (14.58 q/ha) with the application of better combination of organic sources. i.e. T4 (Application of FYM 25 % 5 t ha-1) + vermicompost 75 per cent (3.75 t ha1) treatment. Thus, the present findings have practical utility in successful cultivation of seed spices particularly coriander whereas, the highest cost: benefit ratio (1: 2.82) has been calculated by the use of T6 (Application of FYM @ 5 t/ha. + Azospirillum @ 1.5 kg/ha) treatment.
