TL;DRAbstract

The effect of soil applied panchgavya and foliar applied plant leaf extracts on the biochemical properties, yield and yield attributes of groundnut (Arachis hypogaea L.) was examined in a field trial at CAZRI, Regional Research Station, Jaisalmer during kharif 2006 and 2007 under irrigated conditions. Successive increase in panchgavya levels from 0 to 3.0 l/m2 led to significant increase in dry matter, chlorophyll content, nitrate reductase activity, yield and yield attributes of groundnut. Soil application of panchgavya at 3.0 l/m2 recorded 85, 93 and 90% higher pod, haulm and biological yield compared to control. Foliar application of neem (Azadirachta indica), datura (Datura metel) and tumba (Citrullus colocynthis) plant leaf extracts in combination with Panchgavya in 1: 1 ratio at 35 and 55 days after sowing recorded significantly higher content of chlorophyll, plant dry matter, yield attributes and pod yields compared to water sprayed control.
