Residual and Cumulative Effect of Ipns Practices of Horsegram (Macrotyloma uniflorum Lam.) on Growth and Yield of Finger Millet-Horsegram Cropping Sequence

ABSTRACT
Background: Horsegram is a form of legume that’s simple to cultivate, flexible to pests and diseases, attraction to the eye and palate, and
extensively nutritious. In certain regions, it’s grown on lower suitable soil. The integrated plant nutrient system (IPNS) involves managing
or maintenance of soil fertility and nutrient levels to ensure they are optimal for achieving the desired crop yield.
Methods: The trail consists of 12 treatments which had been three replicated. The trail layout as the randomized block design layout. The
treatments 12 included in the study were T1- Control (without fertilizers), T2- 100% RDF (N:P:K) (12.5:25:12.5 kg ha-1), T3- 75% RN (Chemical
fertilizer) + 25% RN (Green leaf manure compost), T4- 75% RN (Chemical fertilizer) + 25% RN (Groundnut oil cake), T5- 75% RN (Chemical fertilizer)
+ 25% RN (Pressmud compost), T6- 75% RN (Chemical fertilizer) +25% RN (Coirpith compost), T7- 50% RN (Chemical fertilizer) + 25% RN (Green
leaf manure compost) + 25% RN (Groundnut oil cake), T8- 50% RN (Chemical fertilizer) + 25% RN (Pressmud compost) + 25% RN (Coirpith
compost), T9- 50% RN (Chemical fertilizer) + 25% RN (Greenleaf manure compost) + 25% RN (Pressmud compost), T10- 50% RN (Chemical
fertilizer) + 25% RN (Green leaf manure compost) + 25% RN (Coirpith compost), T11- 50% RN (Chemical fertilizer) + 25% RN (Groundnut oil cake)
+ 25% RN (Press mud compost) and T12- 50% RN (Chemical fertilizer) + 25% RN (Groundnut oil cake) + 25% RN (Coirpith compost).
Result: The outcomes of results revealed that of present study were combine with application of 50% RN through chemical fertilizer + 25% RN
through green leaf manure compost + 25% RN through groundnut oilcake (T7) significantly recorded highest plant height, no. of branches plant-1, yield
attributes, seed and haulm yield at 30 DAS, 60 DAS and at post-harvest stages, respectively as compared to rest of treatments as well as control (T1).
