Abstract

A field experiment was conducted during rabi season of 2009-10 and 2010-11 on clay loam soils at Kota (Rajasthan) to find out optimum dose of chemical fertilizers with biofertilizers for increasing the productivity, profit- ability and quality of Indian mustard [Brassica juncea (L.) Czern & Coss]. Application of 100 % RDF(N P S ) + 80 17.5 60 seed inoculation with Azotobacter+ PSB (AP) significantly increased number of primary and secondary branches/ plant, number of siliquae/plant, test weight, seed and stover yield, net returns ( 37200/ha), B: C ratio (2.64), oil content and oil yield (1,034 kg/ha) over control. Maximum uptake of nutrients (NPS) was recorded with 100 % RDF + AP, in seed and stover over rest of the fertility levels. The next best fertility treatment was 100 % RDF or 75 % RDF + biofertilizers.

8 of 11 groups shown: named compounds and organisms first, then groups whose results differ (checked claim by claim), then those with positive and negative results, then the smaller groups.

Claims are grouped by organism, treatment and what was measured or targeted. A paper counts as positive when any of its claims in the group is positive.
