The study was carried out to find out the effect of zinc (Zn) and boron (B) on growth and yield of okra (BARI Dherosh 1). The experiment was laid out in Randomized Complete Block Design (RCBD) with three replications. The treatments of the experiment were, T0 (without Zn or B), T1 (20 kg Zn ha-1), T2 (30 kg Zn ha-1), T3 (10 kg B ha-1), T4 (20 kg B ha-1), T5 (20 kg Zn ha-1 + 10 kg B ha-1), T6 (20 kg Zn ha-1 + 20 kg B ha-1), T7 (30 kg Zn ha-1 + 10 kg B ha-1) and T8 (30 kg Zn ha-1 + 20 kg B ha-1) were undertaken to evaluate the best results of the study. The highest plant height was found in T8 (30 kg Zn ha-1 + 20 kg B ha-1) but the highest number of leaves plant-1 was recorded from T7 (30 kg Zn ha-1 + 10 kg B ha-1). On the other hand, the maximum leaf area index, SPAD value, mean fruit weight, fruit length, fruit diameter, fruit dry matter (%), number of fruits plant-1, fresh fruit weight plant-1 , fruit yield plot-1 and fruit yield ha-1 were found in T7 (30 kg Zn ha-1 + 10 kg B ha-1), while the control (T0) showed lowest performance for the respected parameters. It is strongly concluded that 30 kg Zn ha-1 with 10 kg B ha-1 combination may be helpful for okra cultivation in the field level to increase okra production.

A field experiment was conducted during the summer, 2014 at College of Agriculture, Vellayani, Kerala to evaluate the influence of irrigation levels, nitrogen stress and method of application of fertilizers on growth and yield of yard long bean. The experiment consisted of four levels of irrigation, two levels of nitrogen and two methods of application. The results indicated that daily irrigation at 10 mm depth and recommended dose of nitrogen (30 kg ha-1) recorded superior values for growth parameters viz., functional leaves per plant and leaf area index The major yield attributes like number of pods per plant and pod yield per plant and total pod yield were not influenced by levels of irrigation and nitrogen indicating that irrigation once in three days at 20 mm depth and nitrogen level of 22.5 kg ha-1 is sufficient for yard long bean. Soil and foliar application of nitrogen and potassium recorded superior growth characters, however, the yield was superior when the recommended dose of nutrients were supplied as soil application. Increasing irrigation interval to three days and imparting N stress did not result in any reduction in gross income and net income while, a higher benefit: cost ratio was noted in irrigation at wider intervals. Soil application of nutrients recorded higher gross income, net income and BCR compared to soil + foliar application.

Background: In the recent years, the yield plateau of the major cereals together with the climate change concerns, the potential of millets and pulses have been identified as pivotal for addressing the agrarian and nutritional challenges. The present study was conducted to assess the feasibility of intercropping green gram, black gram and cowpea in finger millet.Methods: A field experiment was conducted during summer 2019-2020 (February to May, 2020) to assess the variation in the growth and yield of pulses, viz., green gram, black gram and cowpea on intercropping with finger millet, along with and without AMF inoculation.Result: Pulses were observed to be significantly taller when intercropped with finger millet in the presence of AMF. Leaf area index (LAI), dry matter production, seed yield and haulm yield were higher for sole crops. Between the intercropping treatments, with and without AMF, LAI, dry matter production and seed yield were superior when pulses where intercropped in finger millet inoculated with AMF. Intercropping finger millet with cowpea recorded the highest finger millet equivalent yield (FMEY) followed by black gram and green gram. The treatment, T6 (finger millet with AMF + cowpea) registered the highest FMEY (3388 kg ha-1) followed by T5 (3234 kg ha-1). Intercropping finger millet (with AMF) with black gram (T4) and green gram (T2) recorded FMEY of 2708 kg ha-1 and 2497 kg ha-1 respectively.
