The resources available with the farming community and their socio-economic aspects warrant the adoption of alternative strategies for enhancing the use efficiency of inputs and environmental safety. The microbe’s adaptability and ability to thrive in different environments, low cost of their production and environmental safety aspects, has prompted introduction of microbial intervention in the crop production (Sarkar et al., 2021). Literature envisages that the use of low-cost technologies i.e. N fixing, P solubilizing microbial consortium and supply of deficient micronutrients (Zn and Fe) will enhance the productivity and profitability of pulses (Nosheenet al., 2021; Rafiqueet al., 2021). In India the pulse production has 438 | Page Sustainable soil management for resilient rainfed agro-ecosystem: conservation agriculture, organic farming, INM, soil-microorganisms-plant interactions
International Conference on Reimagining Rainfed Agro-ecosystems: Challenges & Opportunities during 22-24, December 2022 at ICAR-CRIDA, Hyderabad gradually increased to 25.58 MT in 2020-21however, countryhas a target of achieving 32 and 39 MT by 2030 and 2050, respectively. Therefore, the productivity of pulse crops has to increase for meeting the growing demand. Among the pulse crops, chickpea is the important crop with 49% of total pulses productionin the country (Gaur, 2021). Lower productivity of pulsesis attributed to the use of traditional cultivars, cultivation on marginal lands without proper nutrient management, irrigation and disease and pest control at right time. Further, reduction in the use of organic amendments and deficiencies of micronutrients especially zinc and iron hindering pulse productivity (Patil et al., 2018). Hence, anexperiment was conducted at Research Farm, ICAR-IISWC, Bellari, to know the effect of bio-fertilizers mediated integrated nutrient management on chickpea productivity under rainfed Vertisols of south India. Methodology Treatments covers two main fertilizer application practices, viz., farmer’s practice (10:25, N:P and 2.5 tons FYM once in three years) as T 1 and recommended rate of fertilizer application (25:50 N:P and 5 tons FYM once in three years) as T2. These two treatments were supplemented with bio-fertilizers viz., Rhizobium culture, phosphate solubilizing bacteria (PSB), plant growth promoting Rhizobacteria (PGPR) to constitute T 3 and T 6 treatments. Further, micronutrient zinc supplied with fertilizer application constitutes the T 4 and T 7. Combined effects ofbio-fertilizers and a micronutrient with main fertilizer application practices were tested in T 5 and T 8treatments, respectively. Finally, to test the effect of foliar application, T2 was supplemented with foliar application of NPK (19:19:19 one kg ha -1 ) and NK (KNO 3, one kg ha -1 ) at 5 g L -1 30 days after sowing, as treatments T 9 and T10, respectively. During 2021, total rainfall received was 74% higher (897 mm) than the mean annual rainfall of the location. The crop was sown during October 2021 with receipt of 55.5 mm of rainfall prior to sowing. Crop season rainfall was 270 mm, which was 88% higher than the normal rabi season average rainfall of 65 years. The crop growth wasbelow normal during 2021-22 due to excess rain (217.5 mm) in November 2021. Results The treatment T 8 with application of recommended rate of fertilizer, biofertilizers and zinc, produced significantly higher grain yield (973 kg ha -1 ), straw yield (1297 kg ha -1 ), total dry matter production (2269 kg ha -1 ) and water use efficiency (WUE) of 3.48 kg ha -1 mm -1 over T 2, T 3 and T 1. Among the treatments having farmer's rate of fertilizer the treatment T 5 with biofertilizers and zinc application produced higher grain yield (848 kg ha -1 ), straw yield (1130 kg ha -1 ), total dry matter production (1978 kg ha -1 ) and water use efficiency (WUE) of 3.03 kg ha -1 mm -1 over T 1.
