Abstract
A field experiment was conducted at the Regional Agricultural Research Station, Raichur to study the Effect of micronutrients with or without organic manures on yield of Baby corn – chickpea sequence during 2005 -06. The results revealed that application of RDF(150:75:40 kg N,P2O5,K2O ha-1) + 25 kg ZnSO4 + 10 kg FeSO4 + 35 kg Vermicompost recorded significantly higher yield and yield components viz., ear length (7.40 cm), ear girth (4.99 cm), ear weight (17.40 g), yield (64.43 q ha-1) and green fodder yield (232.33 q ha-1). Similarly application of 50% (12.5 : 25 : 12.5 kg N, P2O5, K2O ha-1) RDF to chickpea also increased yield attributes and yield viz., pods per plant (100.33), test weight (24.80 g) and seed yield (15.4 q ha-1) over RDF alone and all other treatment s expect RDF along with micronutrients and FYM. In case of Economics same trend was followed by higher gross returns (Rs 96,838), net return (Rs. 76,889 ha-1) and B:C ratio (3.85) was noticed in RDF+25 kg ZnSo4+35 kg Vermicompost treatment.
