Abstract
Among the kharif season grain legumes, pigeonpea [Cajanus cajan (L.) Millsp.] occupies the first place and is widely grown in different parts of the country as rainfed crop. The average yield of the crop is very low. Among the various factors responsible for low yields, the most important one is poor fertility of soils coupled with almost no application of fertilizers and proper water management. To meet the demands of pigeonpea, fertilizer use continued but reckless use of it deteriorates soil health and economics. It has been realized that not only chemical fertilizers but also organic manures will sustain and maintain the productivity. Pigeonpea with a broad inter row and plant spacing will provide good scope for incorporation of organic manure in the seed line it self so that the efficiency of the manure will be increased many....
