34. Production efficiency of mung bean (Vigna radiate L.) through seed inoculation and NP application in Balochistan
Abstract
The study was conducted to examine the production efficiency effect of mung bean variety AZRI-2006 through seed inoculation and N+P application in Balochistan during kharif 2015 and 2016. Inoculation (Azospirillum A1-Q + N 7.5kg per ha and P2O5 12.5kg per ha) treatment was compared with full dose of fertilizer treatment (N 15kg per ha, P2O5 25kg per ha). The high mineral fertilizer and Inoculum + half mineral fertilizer treatments were compared with control treatment (no fertilizer). Significant increase in grain yield was recoreded in both the years. The results indicated that application of Inoculum in combination with N 7.5kg per ha and P2O5 25 kg per ha improved grain yield more than 51.0% as compared to control.
