Abstract

The field experiment was conducted during 2012-13 in red soil to study the response of groundnut to different levels of potassium. Results indicated RDF+12.5 kg K2O+1% K foliar spray at 45 DAS recorded significantly higher pod yield of groundnut (1545 kg ha-1) over all other treatment combinations. Yield parameters like no of pods per plant (24) was also significantly superior with this treatment compared to the all other combinations. Similar trend was also followed with respect to net returns (Rs 34346 ha-1) and BC ratio (2.41) compared to all other treatments
