“…There is a scope to enhance the productivity of cowpea by proper agronomic practices and fertilizers. In India problems of cowpea such as low flowering and poor pod set in pulse crops [9][10][11][12][13]. Productivity of pulse crops has been found to be increased by the use of different growth regulators.…”

Background: Cowpeas thrive in poor dry conditions, growing well in soils up to 85% sand. This makes them a particularly important crop in arid, semidesert regions where not many other crops will grow. As well as an important source of food for humans in poor, arid regions, the crop can also be used as feed for livestock. Cowpea is primarily used in the form of dry seeds, fodder, green pod, green manure, and cover crops. Objectives: Effects of boron levels and plant growth regulators on growth, yield and economics of cowpea (Vigna unguiculata L.). Methods: The field experiment was conducted in Zaid season of 2021, at crop research farm of Department of Agronomy at Sam Higginbottom University of Agriculture, Technology and Sciences, Prayagraj in North Eastern plains of Eastern Uttar Pradesh, under Randomized block design comprising of 10 treatments with different combination of boron levels and plant growth regulators which are replicated thrice. Conclusion: Based on the above findings it can be concluded that the application of boron and plant growth regulators performs effective and improves the Plant height, Dry weight, No of Branches, No of pods per plant, No of seeds per pod, Test weight, Seed yield and stover yield of cowpea, the findings are based on research conducted during a single season, they may be repeated for further confirmation.

Background: This study focuses on examining the impact of organic-inorganic nitrogen management and boron-sulfur nutrition on key growth and yield parameters of mustard to enhance crop productivity. By analyzing the effects of different treatments, the research seeks to provide insights into optimizing nutrient management strategies for improved agricultural practices and sustainable crop production in the region. Materials and Methods: The pre-experiment soil analysis was done to determine nutrient status. The field experiment utilized a split-plot design with three replications. The main plots was organic-inorganic nitrogen managements which contains four nitrogen rates (RDF, 75% urea/25% manure, 50% each, 25% urea/75% manure) with recommended P/K. The sub-plots were boron-sulfur nutrition including S1= 1kg B ha-1, 40kg S ha-1, and S2= 1kg B + 40kg S ha-1. Growth and yield parameters were recorded following standard procedures. Data was statistically analyzed by OPSTAT online using ANOVA to determine treatment effects. Findings: The study showed integrating organic manures to substitute 25-50% inorganic nitrogen significantly increased plant height, branching, and yields of mustard versus recommended fertilizer dose. Micronutrient supplementation with boron and sulfur also improved growth and productivity over control. Balanced organic-inorganic nitrogen management along with B and S nutrition had significantly positive effect on the all crop characteristics, increasing seed, stover and biological yields by 11-13% over sole inorganic fertilization. Conclusion: Balanced Integrated nutrient management is essential for optimal growth and productivity of mustard plants. Organic-inorganic nitrogen and boron-sulfur management significantly influenced plant height and crop productivity. Combining of Organic-inorganic nitrogen and boron-sulfur management can promote sustainability and reduce chemical fertilizer use.
