Differential Response of French Bean Varieties to NPK Fertilization with or without Farm Yard Manure in an Alfisol
Journal Title: Scholars Academic Journal of Biosciences - Year 2015, Vol 3, Issue 4
Abstract
Abstract: Differential response of six varieties of French bean to two levels (F1 and F2) of fertilizer (N,P and K) with or without Farm Yard Manure (FYM) was studied in a pot culture experiment using an alfisols. Highly significant differences were observed among the varieties’ of French bean with respect to N,P and K uptake at all the stages of crop growth. Higher uptake rates of nitrogen and potassium were positively correlated with higher yields. The uptake rates of all the nutrients increased with time. The effect of FYM application on nutrient availability resulted in higher uptake rates in case of nitrogen and potassium at F2 level that at F1 level. Significant differences in fresh pod yield were observed among the different varieties of French bean. The varieties, Arka Komal and IIHR-909 recorded higher yield at both F1 and F2 level. The variety tweed wonder recorded lower yield both at F1 and F2 level. At both fertilizer levels with or without FYM it was found that the variety Arka Komal recorded highest pod yield showing that varieties have unique genetic properties that regulate their response to utilization of nutrients. Keywords: Farm Yard Manure (FYM), Alfisol, French bean, Fertilities.
