Abstract
The pot experiment was carried out in the Net House of Micronutrient Research Project (I.C.A.R), B. A. College of Agriculture, Anand Agricultural University, Anand on the “Phytostabilization of chromium by organic amendments in chromium spiked loamy sand soil using fodder maize (Zea maize L.)” during kharif season of the year 2018. The experiment was laid out in a completely randomized design (factorial) with three repetitions. The four level of Cr (0, 100, 200, 400 mg kg-1) and four level of organic amendments (no organic amendments, vermicompost @ 5 t ha-1, rice husk biochar @ 5 and 10 t ha-1) were tested in the experiment. Salient finding of the experiment results are encapsulated as below.
