Abstract:

The field experiment was carried out during Rabi season in 2020, in a farmer’s field in Periya Muliyanur village, Anthiyur taluk, Erode district, Tamil Nadu to enhance the productivity of groundnut through foliar application with organic nutrition. The field experiment was laid out in a randomized block design (RBD) with tree replication with nine treatments viz.,T1 – RDF + Panchagavya - 2 %, T2 – 75 % RDF + Panchagavya - 4 %, T3 – RDF + Vermiwash - 2 %, T4– 75 % RDF + Vermiwash - 4 %, T5 – RDF + Cow dung spray - 10 %, T6 – RDF + Humic acid – 4 %, T7 – RDF + Pulse Wonder – 2 %, T8 – RDF+ Homobrassinolide – 0.12 g a.i. h-1, T9 – RDF alone. Among the different foliar nutrition tried out, the number of component leaves (42.87), dry matter production (5964 kg/ha), Leaf area index (4.32), Peg to pod percentage (66.34 %), Shelling percentage (71.63 %), pod yield (2396 kg/ha), haulm yield (3620 kg/ha),oil yield (837.75 kg) and oil content (48.82 %) were recorded at application of recommended dose of fertilizers (RDF) combined with foliar application of humic acid (0.4 percent ).
