Performance of groundnut (Arachis hypogaea L.) as influenced by various resource constraints

Abstract: 

Groundnut the “king of oilseeds” is grown on area of 4.60 million hectares with the production of 4.8 million tonnes during the year 2014-15. Among the various agronomic practices, fertilizer, weeding and plant protection play important role in maximizing the pod yield. Keeping in view all the facts, the study of performance of groundnut as influenced by resource constraints was formulated in RBD design in three replications with 8 different treatments. The results in the present investigation revealed significant differences in respect of pod yield for all the treatments studied. Among the different treatments, highest pod yield was recorded by the treatment T1 (1149 kg/ha) with 3.08 B:C ratio followed by T3 (1135 kg/ha, 3.24 BC ratio) and T5 (722 kg/ha, 2.10 BC ratio) and lowest yield recorded by T8 (447 kg/ha).
