Dr. Panjabrao Deshmukh Krishi Vidyapeeth, Akola

Dr. Panjabrao Deshmukh Krishi Vidyapeeth, Akola was established on 20th October, 1969 with its head-quarter at Akola. This Agricultural University was named after the illustrious son of Vidarbha Dr. Panjabrao (alias Bhausaheb) Deshmukh, who was the Minister for Agriculture,Govt. of India. The jurisdiction of this university is spread over the eleven districts of Vidarbha. According to the University Act 1983 (of the Government of Maharashtra), the University is entrusted with the responsibility of agricultural education, research and extension education alongwith breeder and foundation seed programme. The University has its main campus at Akola. The instructional programmes at main campus are spread over in 5 Colleges namely, College of Agriculture, College of Agricultural Engineering & Technology, College of Forestry, College of Horticulture and Post Graduate Institute. At this campus 4 degree programmes namely B.Sc.(Agri.) B.Sc. (Hort.), B.Sc. (Forestry) and B.Tech. (Ag. Engg.) , two Master’s Degree Programmes viz. M.Sc.(Agri.) and M.Tech. (Agri.Engg.) and Doctoral Degree Programmes in the faculties of Agriculture and Agril. Engineering are offered. The University has its sub-campus at Nagpur with constituent College, College of Agriculture which offers B.Sc.(Agri.) and M.Sc.(Agri.) degree programmes. The Nagpur Campus is accomplished with a garden, surrounded by its natural beauty and a well established Zoo which attract the general public and visitors to the city. A separate botanic Garden is being maintained on 22 hectares with a green house for the benefit of research workers. In addition there are 2 affiliated grant-in-aid colleges and 14 private non-grant-in-aid colleges under the umbrella of this University A Central Research Station is situated at the main Campus which caters to the need of research projects undertaken by Crop Scientists of the principle crops of the region are Cotton, Sorghum, Oilseeds and Pulses.

    INTERACTIVE EFFECT OF BIOCHAR, FYM AND NITROGEN ON SOIL PROPERTIES AND YIELD OF BLACKGRAM
    (Dr. Panjabrao Deshmukh Krishi Vidyapeeth, Akola, Maharashtra., 2019-07-23) KADAM, YOGESH DATTATRAY.; Laharia, G.S.
    The present investigation was conducted during Kharif- 2018-19 to study the “Interactive effect of biochar, FYM and nitrogen on soil properties and yield of blackgram” at Research Farm, Department of Agronomy, Dr. PDKV, Akola. The experiment was laid out in Randomized Block Design with nine treatments and three replication. On the basis of results obtained in the present investigation, highest yield and yield attributing characters of blackgram were observed with soil application of biochar @ 10 t ha-1 + FYM @ 10 t ha-1 and nitrogen @ 20 kg ha-1 (T9) and it was on par with treatment T7, T5, T3 and T8. The Nutrient content and uptake of (NPK) by blackgram was significantly highest in treatment where soil application of biochar @ 10 t ha-1 + FYM @ 10 t ha-1 and nitrogen @ 20 kg ha-1 (T9) was applied and it was on par with treatment T7, T5, T3 and T8. The test weight was significantly highest in treatment receiving soil application of biochar @ 10 t ha-1 + FYM @ 10 t ha-1 and nitrogen @ 20 kg ha-1 (T9) and it was found to be on par with all other treatments expect treatment T1 and Protein content of blackgram was increased due to the application of biochar @ 10 t ha-1 + FYM @ 10 t ha-1 and nitrogen @ 20 kg ha-1 (T9) and it was on par with treatment T7, T8, T5 and T3. Chemical properties like pH and EC show slightly changes but treatment differences were non-significant and organic carbon content significantly increased with application of biochar @ 10 t ha-1 + FYM @ 10 t ha-1 and nitrogen @ 20 kg ha-1 (T9) and it was on par with treatment T8, T7 and T5 and the available N, P, and K significantly increased with application of biochar @ 10 t ha-1 + FYM @ 10 t ha-1 and nitrogen @ 20 kg ha-1 (T9) and it was on par with treatment T8 and T7. The lower value of available N, P and K were recorded in treatment (T1) i.e. control. The bulk density was non- significant and WHC increased with application biochar @ 10 t ha-1 + FYM @ 10 t ha-1 and nitrogen @ 20 kg ha-1 and it was found to be on par with the treatments T8, T7 and T5. The significantly increase in soil microbial biomass carbon (SMBC) was recorded in treatment where soil application of biochar @ 10 t ha-1 + FYM @ 10 t ha-1 and nitrogen @ 20 kg ha-1 and it was found to be on par with the treatment T7, T8 and T5. Whereas, the lowest soil microbial biomass carbon was reported in treatment control (T1). The correlation matrix showed a positive and significant relationship between yield with various soil properties, available P (0.839**) was highly correlated with yield of blackgram followed by available N (0.785**), organic carbon (0.735**) and available K (0.713**) indicating their contribution in improving yield of blackgram. Hence, it is concluded that the soil application of biochar @10 t ha-1 + FYM 10 t ha-1 and nitrogen 10 kg ha-1 were favourably influenced the yield, uptake of nutrient and quality of blackgram as well as slight improvement were observed in soil properties.
