An investigation was conducted in Rabi season of 2015-16 at Model Organic Farm, Chaudhary Sarwan Kumar Himachal Pradesh Krishi Vishvavidyalaya, Palampur, Himachal Pradesh to evaluate the performance of chickpea under organic and inorganic sources of nutrients at different soil moisture regimes in chickpea-okra cropping system. The results of the study revealed that growth, yield attributes, seed and straw yield of chickpea were statistically increased with irrigated condition and nutrient management practices. Under irrigated condition, 15.20% and 16.43% higher seed yield and net returns per rupee invested, respectively were recorded over rainfed condition. Organic nutrient management recorded significantly higher chickpea seed yield (10.60 q/ha) as compared to other treatments, followed by integrated nutrient management (INM). Organic nutrient management recorded higher values of net returns of Rs. 58692 ha-1 and net returns per rupee invested of 2.05. The available nutrient status of soil (NPK) was significantly higher under organic nutrient management as compared to inorganic nutrients.Keywords

The effect of continuous application of fertilizers and amendments on wheat yield and DTPA extractable micronutrients in an acid Alfisol during rabi (2016-17) was evaluated in field experiment at the research farm of the Department of Soil Science, CSKHPKV Palampur. This experiment was initiated during 1972 in randomized block design with eleven treatments which were replicated three times. The soil of the experimental area was silt loam and classified taxonomically as "Typic Hapludalf". The highest productivity of wheat was recorded in the treatment comprising 100 per cent NPK + FYM and was statistically comparable with 100 per cent NPK + lime. Continuous application of N alone resulted in zero yield and omission of K and S from the fertilization schedule also resulted in drastic reduction in the yield. In surface soil (0-0.15m), application of Zn along with 100 per cent NPK (T5 ) recorded the highest value (3.75 mg kg-1) of DTPA extractable Zn and combined use of FYM with optimal dose of NPK (T8 ) recorded the highest value of DTPA extractable Fe, Cu and Mn (38.0, 2.25 and 37.25 mg kg-1, respectively). The lowest value (1.08, 18.8, 1.32 and 17.90 mg kg-1) of DTPA extractable Zn, Fe, Cu and Mn, respectively, was recorded in control plot.Keywords

This study was undertaken in an on-going long-term fertilizer experiment, initiated during 1972-73 at Experimental Farm of Department of Soil Science, CSK HPKV Palampur to work out the relationship of soil health parameters with quality of maize in an acid Alfisol. The soil of the experimental site was silt loam and classified taxonomically as Typic Hapludalf. The experiment consisted of eleven treatments with varying levels of NPK fertilizers, and FYM & lime as amendments. Continuous application of fertilizers and amendments for forty-six years significantly influenced the yield of maize. The highest grain (46.5 q ha-1) and stover yield of maize (77.0 q ha-1) was recorded in the 100 per cent NPK + FYM treatment and was at par with 100 per cent NPK + lime. Continuous omission of S and K decreased the grain yield by 55 and 53 per cent, respectively, whereas regular application of N alone resulted in zero yield. Soil health parameters and grain quality traits were assessed and the relationship between soil health parameters and quality traits of maize grains was worked out. Correlation studies revealed that soil organic carbon exhibited a positive and significant relationship with non- reducing sugar (r = 0.737**). Similar positive relationship was found between porosity and non-reducing sugars (r =0.940**). There was a positive and significant relationship between dehydrogenase activity and reducing sugars (r = 0.866**). Invariably, bulk density exhibited negative and significant relationship with different quality traits of maize grains.Keywords

Field experiments were conducted at Organic Farm Holta of Department of Organic Agriculture and Natural Farming, CSK Himachal Pradesh Krishi Vishvavidyalaya, Palampur during kharif and rabi seasons of 2018-19 and 2019-20 on silty clay loam soil to study the performance of different quality traits under different farming practices in legume-based cropping systems. The experiment was laid out under Split Plot Design with three replications comprising of three sequences in legume – vegetable based cropping system i.e., “soybean – onion”, “okra – peas” and “mash – garlic” under different farming practices i.e., Organic farming, Natural farming, Inorganic and Integrated farming practices.Comparing different farming practices, highest protein content (39.1%) was observed in crops under organic farming practices followed by zero budget natural farming practices (38.3%). Significantly higher protein yield of these crops was also recorded under organic farming practices (449 kg/ha) followed by integrated farming practices (405 kg/ha).Carbohydrate yield (1127 kg/ha) and fat yield (120 kg/ha) of crops were significantly highest in integrated farming practices and inorganic farming practices respectively. “Soybean-onion” cropping system produced significantly highest protein yield (644 kg/ha) and fat yield (300.7 kg/ha) as compared to other cropping systems. However, higher protein content and low carbohydrate and fat were recorded in this system when grown under organic farming practices and was found to be the best amongst all cropping systems and farming practices combinations.Keywords
