| dc.description.abstract | I4ucb of the *orld is still hungry and the population la increasing at <ID alarsalng rate. But the food supply is not Keeping pace vlth it* This problem is aora aeutt in India, «&«re ev^ry year, the population is increasing by ID Billion. Therefore* food probleai for the countryaer* and expenslvensss arid snort age of fertilisers for agricultural production are the two great problems of India. aeeause> of extensive use and shortage of world fertiliser supply it lias become necessary to ensure th.it the Inputs be a^ed at its maxlfiu » efficiency. A recent increase in the prices of fertiliser and their extensive use by faraera, it is necess ary to predict the amount of fertilisers to be applied to aoaleve the best results for *ost profitable returns froa the fertilisers. lilooe, jower is an iaportant food crop providing food not only for human race but also to the vast cattle population in India. Needleas to say, therefare, it is a wry valuable crop to the farmers. j&ong the various factors responsible for inoreased production, the use of commercial fertiliser has a v%ry important place. It is well known phenomenon tli-rt the application of fertilisers to $o*&r crop helps in improving the quality and yield of the grain and fodder. &ut tae response to kk& application is not similar at all the tiaaes and places. The Jjowar crop gives the high reapor.. e to nitrogen amplication and producesoore grain of good quality with increasing levels of nitrogen <J*elson, l%<-)• Xbaa the 80 kg l»/aa is *&e optlsua dose under tfck« r^tifad eomditiorjs especially in Maharashtra -which an avarage fanacr cur, afford.
