Abstract
Tree and forest were always considered as an integral part of Indian culture. This is amply supported by the ancient scriptures and historical records. Fertilizer and irrigation are important inputs to increase productivity of forest plantation. FYM in different proportion are generally used to increases the leaf area of plants due to the effect of available Nitrogen. This increases the photosynthetic surface and thus promotes growth. The experiments were conducted at village Bhasunder kala and Bagaha as two different sites I & II of Allahabad district in November 2011, to find out the effect of irrigation schedule and different organic manure on assessment of plant height, collar girth and survival percentage of seedling of Pongamia pinnata, Emblica officinalis, Carrisca carandus..The experiments consist of three
different age group of plants, given with different treatments of organic manure and different time interval of irrigation to study the seedling growth and the survival of plant.
Plantation was done on both sites Rocky and Usar. Twelve treatments and three different organic manure were applied with three irrigation regime (viz.10 Days irrigation, 20 Days irrigation, 30 Days irrigation.). Organic manure was given in quarterly dose in each treatment. All three replication with species Pongamia pinnata, Emblica officinalis, and Carrisca carandus, the best survival performance was given by species P. pinnata . In six month old seedling of P. pinnata best treatment T10 (rocky-117.10cm and usar-108.34cm) with best rocky site. In one year old seedling treatment T10 (rocky-170.60cm and usar-139.78cm) and two year old seedling treatment T10 (rocky-193.67cm and usar-156.33cm).In view on age group two year old seedling gave a best growth increment overall treatment and age group with organic manure and irrigation regime.
