An experiment was conducted to assess the effect of irrigation, mulching and integrated nutrient management on nutrient concentration and their uptake and available nutrients in summer groundnut during 2015 and 2016 at the Department of Agronomy, I.Ag.Sc, BHU, Varanasi. Results showed that application of irrigation at 100 mm CPE recorded highest N, K and S content, available nutrients in soil, kernel and haulm yield. However, irrigation at 60 mm CPE recorded significantly the highest P content, NPKS uptake, available nutrients in soil, kernel and haulm yield over 80 and 100mm CPE. Dust mulch recorded higher nutrient content and available nutrients in soil whereas, paddy straw mulch recorded maximum NPKS uptake, kernel and haulm yield. Among INM treatments, an application of 75%NPK +25N through FYM +60 kg sulphur through gypsum recorded significantly highest NPKS content and their uptake, available nutrients in soil, kernel and haulm yield as compared to other INM treatments.
