Title: Effect of organic nutrient management on soil properties and nutrient uptake in muskmelon (Cucumis melo L.) cv. GMM 3
Abstract: An experiment entitled “Effect of organic nutrient management on soil properties and nutrient uptake in muskmelon (Cucumis melo L.) cv. GMM 3” was carried out during Summer-2017 at College of Horticulture, Sardarkrushinagar Dantiwada Agricultural University, Jagudan (Gujarat). In this investigation nine levels of organic nutrients were tested in the Randomized Block Design with three replications. Treatments were evaluated on the basis of soil properties nutrient uptake and. Application of organic nutrients significantly affected soil properties like available nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium, organic carbon and nutrient uptake after harvest. Different soil parameters viz., available nitrogen (213.36 kg/ha), phosphorus (42.01 kg/ha), potassium (308.71 kg/ha), organic carbon (0.33%), nitrogen uptake (49.00 kg/ha), phosphorus uptake (12.98 kg/ha) and potassium uptake (40.51 kg/ha) by plant were found maximum with treatment 50 per cent N from FYM + 50 per cent N from Poultry Manure + Biofertilizer (Azospirillium+PSB+KSM) + Trichoderma viride + Neem oil (T7).
