“…Avaliable N status increased in all treatments in comparison to the initial available N content (108 kg/ha). These results were in confirmatory with Sharma, et al [34]. The maximum increase was recorded in treatments receiving recommended inorganics and organics as an additional dose followed by treatment receiving only organics then by treatment receiving super optimum dose of fertilizers.…”

A long term fertilizer experiment was initiated at PJTSAU sub campus, Jagtial, Telangana state, during rainy season of the year 2000-01 in rice-rice continuous cropping system. The experiment was conducted in a fixed plan layout with 11 treatments (and 1 fallow) which included various combinations of inorganic and organic fertilizers and was replicated 4 times under randomized block design. At the initiation of Experiment the soil properties were clay texture with pH 8.22, organic carbon 7.9 g/kg, Available Nitrogen (N) 107.6 kg/ha, Available Phosphorus (P) 19.6 kg/ha and Available Potassium (K) 364 kg/ha. The study was conducted over a period of 17 years comprising of 34 cropping cycles, in rainy season where all treatments received optimum dose (100% NPK), super optimum dose (150% NPK) and integrated treatments (100% NPK + FYM 5 t/ha) (FYM – farm yard manure) gave onpar yields. However in the post rainy season, 150% NPK treatment gave superior yield compared to all treatments except NPK+ FYM 5 t/ha. NPK + FYM 5 t/ha and 150% NPK treatments recorded the most sustainable yield index (SYI) of 0.65 in rainy and post rainy season respectively. Over all mean SYI, was highest for NPK + FYM 5 t/ha and 150% NPK i.e., 0.63 and the least was observed in 100% N alone 0.50. There was an increase in organic carbon, Available N, Available P and Available K in NPK + FYM 5 t/ha and 150% NPK treatments compared with other treatments. Treatment receiving N alone i.e. imbalance nutrient supply retrogress the crop yields and soil productivity in long run.

“…Similarly, 50% N replacement by farmyard manure over six years gave higher yields of both rice and wheat compared to 100% chemical fertilizer treatment (Subehia et al, 2013). The combined use of NP and manure with a ratio of about 3:5 gave a higher yield than sole application in maize after 16 years (Sharma et al, 2014) and/or soybean (Bandyopadhyay et al, 2010), and other crops (Bedada et al, 2014;Chivenge et al, 2011). Although straw application added more C sources and other nutrients to the soil, maize yields of T3 and T4 did not differ significantly (Table 3).…”

“…Timsina et al, (2010) observed that even with the recommended levels of nutrient application, there is continuous gap between nutrients removal to nutrient applied in soil under different cropping systems. Continuous intensive cropping, low K application and heavy mining of K results into declining in available K in soils under long-term fertilizer experiments (Sharma et al, 2014). In another finding, Kumar (2016) reported that when exchangeable K decreases in the soil pearl millet and wheat crop started extracting K from non-exchangeable K reserves in the soils.…”

A field experiment was conducted during the rainy (June -October) and winter (November -March) seasons for two years during 2010-2012 at research farm of ICAR -Indian Agricultural Research Institute, New Delhi, India. The experiment was laid out in a randomized block design consisting of seven treatments and three replication. Results revealed the integrated application of 90 kg K ha -1 supplemented through muriate of potash (MOP) @ 60 kg K and farmyard manure (FYM) @ 30 kg K resulted in highest grain yield of 4.93 t ha -1 and biological yield of 11.71 t ha -1 in maize. Similarly, highest grain yield of 5.44 t ha -1 and biological yield of 14.03 t ha -1 were observed in treatment applied with integrated dose of K @ 90 kg K ha -1 supplemented through MOP and FYM in wheat crop. The highest uptake of K was observed under treatment applied through 30 kg K through MOP + 30 kg K through FYM in both cropping cycles. Nutrient use efficiency of N, P and K increased by K application. In soil, decline was observed in different fractions of K irrespective of different applied K treatments. All the treatments where K was added showed a negative balance of K availability in soil. Application of 60 kg K ha -1 through MOP in both the season showed minimum negative K balance (-281.3 kg ha -1 ). Integrated K application @ 90 Kg K ha -1 resulted in highest exchangeable and nonexchangeable K in the soil for both seasons. To achieve a sustained yield level, nutrient use efficiency and soil fertility integrated K application @ 60 kg K ha -1 for the rainy season in maize and a dose of 60 kg K ha -1 through MOP alone in the winter season for wheat crop may be recommended.
