ABSTRACT
A field experiment was conducted at the instructional farm, S. D. Agricultural University, Sardarkrushinagar during 2010 on loamy sand soil to investigate the effect of levels of vermicompost and phosphorus with PSB on growth and yield of summer greengram. Among the levels vermicompost @ 1tha-1 sowed its superiority producing highest seed (1105kg ha-1) and stover yield (2379 kg ha-1). The highest performance is attributed to significant improvement in growth and yield parameters viz., number of branches plant-1, pods plant-1, pod length, number of seeds pod-1 and seed yield plant-1. Among the levels of phosphorus @ 40 kg P2O5 ha-1 + PSB standing statically at par with 40 kg P2O5 ha-1 recorded significantly higher seed (1099 kg ha-1) and stover yield (2301 kg ha-1) over PSB only and 20 kg P2O5 with and without PSB. Phosphorus application @ 40 kg ha-1+ PSB performed equally as that of P2O5 40 kg ha-1 without PSB, significantly improved growth and yield attributing characters viz., plant height, number of branches plant-1, dry matter plant-1, number of nodules plant-1, pods plant-1, pod length , number of seeds pod-1 and seed yield plant-1.
