ABSTRACT
An experiment was laid at the experimental field of Division of Vegetable Science, SKUAST-Kashmir, Shalimar Srinagar (Jammu & Kashmir), during kharif 2009 and kharif 2010 to evaluate the soil properties of tomato crop. The soil characteristics of Kashmir valley showed significant difference when tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum Mill) was given different sources of plant nutrients including organic and inorganic sources. Results obtained proved soil characteristics like pH,organic carbon, electrical conductivity N,P,K differed with each treatment after the harvest of crop during both years and also varied significantly when compared with the initial contents. It was found that treatment T9(3.5t+95N:75 P2O5:55 K2O) proved superior as compared to all treatments with respect to soil characteristics, possibly due to richness in nutrient content and narrow C:N ratio of poultry manure which improves decomposition and increases availability of nutrients. Besides integration of inorganic with organic nutrients has proved superior as compared to sole applications of inorganic and organic nutrients.
Key words :
Inorganic nutrients, Organic manures, Soil characteristics, Tomato.
