ABSTRACT
The experiment was conducted at western block, Central Research Station Dr. Panjabrao Deshmukh Krishi Vidyapeeth, Akola (M.S.) to study the effect of organic and inorganic fertilization on nutrient content and nutrient uptake by wheat. Nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium uptake were significantly increased in grains and straw with the incorporation of organic and inorganic fertilization. The N, P and K increased with increasing levels of recommended dose of fertilizer. Maximum nutrients uptake (192.30 kg N, 20.65 kg P and 176.99 kg K ha-1) was observed with the application of 100% RDF. Among organic manures, 125% recommended N through vermicompost (16.48 t ha-1) influenced significantly uptake of nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium, maximum being 165.99 kg N, 18.29 kg P and 157.68 kg K ha-1 respectively.
Key words :
Inorganic fertilization, Nutrient content, Nutrient uptake, Wheat, Organic, Vermicompost.
