To identify an ideal combination of Zinc, organic and inorganic nutrient sources for getting maximum yield of kharif parching sorghum a field experiment was carried out on Effect of integrated nutrient management on yield and quality of parching sorghum at Sorghum Research Unit, Dr. PDKV, Akola, during Kharif season of 2016-17 on clayey loam soil. The experiment was laid out in Factorial randomized block design in three replications. There were twelve treatments combination comprising of three different varieties viz., i.e., V1-PKV Ashwini, V2-Malkapurwani (Local), V3-PDKV Kartiki and four nutrient management treatments viz., T1-10 t FYM ha-1, T2-100% RDF (80:40:40) kg N, P2O5, and K2O ha-1, T3-75% RDF + 5 t FYM ha-1 + ZnSO4 25 kg ha-1, T4-100% RDF + ZnSO4 25 kg ha-1. Among the varieties PDKV Kartiki (V3) recorded significantly higher green hurda yield (q ha-1), dry grain yield (q ha-1), grain weight per panicle (g plant-1), aroma and taste. However, Malkapur wani (Local) (V2) recorded significantly higher plant height, dry matter accumulation (g plant-1), and fodder yield (q ha-1). Growth character, yield contributing characters, green hurda yield and fodder yield were significantly maximum with application of 75% RDF + 5 t FYM ha-1+ZnSO4 25 kg (T3).
