Abstract
The experiments were carried out in Randomised Block Design replicated thrice comprising with 14 treatments under sandy loam condition. The experiments were carried out in Randomised Block Design replicated thrice with 14 treatments under sandy loam condition. The treatment details were T1 (FYM @ 10 t/ha + Rhizobium + PSB), T2(PM @ 5 t/ha + Rhizobium + PSB) , T3 (VBM @ 5 t/ha + Rhizobium + PSB), T4 (VC @ 5 t/ha + Rhizobium + PSB), T5(FYM @ 10 t/ha + Rhizobium + PSB + Wood ash @ 0.5 t/ha), T6 (PM @ 5 t/ha + Rhizobium + PSB + Wood ash @ 0.5 t/ha),T7 (VBM @ 5t/ha + Rhizobium + PSB + Wood ash @ 0.5 t/ha), T8 (VC @ 5 t/ha + Rhizobium + PSB + Wood ash @ 0.5 t/ha),T9 (FYM @ 10 t/ha,T10 (PM @ 5 t/ha), T11 (VBM @ 5 t/ha),T12 (VC @ 5 t/ha), T13 (Wood ash @ 0.5 t/ha), T14 (Control).
Incorporation of organic manures along with biofertilizers and wood ash increased the growth, yield, quality and nutrient content of edible podded pea. The result revealed that the application of vermi bonemeal, rhizobium, PSB and wood ash (T7) showed significantly higher plant height ,root length, fresh and dry shoot and root weight (g),no. of pods/plant, pod length, pod weight/plant, pod yield/ha, crude protein, reducing sugar, and total carbohydrates. The minimum days taken to 50% flowering and fruiting as well node at which first flowering was recorded in T7.The postharvest available soil N was found higher in T8 whereas P and K were recorded maximum in T7. Plant N content was highest in T6 whereas, P and K were exhibited maximum in T7. The highest net income and B:C ratio were achieved with the treatment T7.
The present investigation revealed that edible podded pea var. Arka Apoorva may be grown in pasighat condition with the combined application of vermi bonemeal, rhizobium, phosphate solubilising bacteria and wood ash for higher yield, quality and economic return.
