Abstract
A field experiment was carried out on loamy sand soil at Bidi
Tobacco Research Station Farm, Anand Agricultural University, Anand to
study the “Effect of organic manures on green pod yield of summer cowpea
[Vigna unguiculata (L.) Walp] under middle Gujarat conditions” during
summer season of 2013-14. Nine treatments were tried out in a Randomized
Block Design (RBD) with four replications.
The plant population per meter row length at 25 DAS and at final
picking showed no significant difference between different treatments. The
periodical plant height at various growth stages were not altered due to effect
of different treatments at 30 DAS but at 60 DAS and at final picking
significantly higher plant height was observed due to treatment T2, RDF
(20-40-0 NPK kg ha-1) than treatment T1 (Control). Whereas, different
treatments did not exert their significant influence on number of branches
plant -1.
