International Conference on Reimagining Rainfed Agro-ecosystems: Challenges & Opportunities during 22-24, December 2022 at ICAR-CRIDA, Hyderabad T4-16P-162841 Influence of Integrated Nutrient Management on Soil Properties, Crop Yields and Water Use Efficiency in Rainfed Maize-Wheat Rotation Mohammad Amin Bhat, M.J. Singh, Anil Khokhar, Abrar Yousuf, Parminder Singh Sandhu and Balwinder Singh Dhillon Regional Research Station, Punjab Agricultural University, Ballowal Saunkhri, SBS Nagar, Punjab- 144521 Nutrient management is imperative to increase productivity of maize-wheat system, a prominent multiple cropping system operational in dryland areas of the northwest India. The productivity of maize and wheat not only depends on adequate nutrition but also the appropriate nutrient management approaches. Nevertheless, the farming systems practiced in India are exploitative in character making it difficult to maintain soil fertility and affecting long-term viability of agriculture (Ghosh et al 2021). Nitrogen is the essential element, the deficiency of which restricts crop production. Chemical fertilizers are the predominant source of nitrogen in agricultural production systems. No doubt, inorganic fertilization substantially augments crop yield; but, the supply of nutrients solely through synthetic fertilizers does not fulfill the complete nutrient demand of the crops (Khokhar et al 2022). The sustained and prudent use of manures improves physico-chemical characteristics of all soils, especially those having shallow profile depth, coarse-texture and lower content of organic matter, and reduces the risk of soil and water quality degradation (Amoah et al 2012). The regular addition of organic manures is frequently recommended in India to maintain soil fertility, although its usage is rapidly declining due to farm mechanization, greater use of inorganic fertilizers, and a reduction in the size of livestock. However, the commercial fertilizers are becoming increasingly expensive, therefore, organic manures, like FYM, continue to be an appropriate substitute to commercial fertilizers. Therefore, this study was intended to evaluate the effect of INM on soil properties, crop yields and water use efficiency under rainfed conditions. Methodology The study was conducted in an on-going 5-year-old experiment started in 2017 at Regional Research Station, Punjab Agricultural University, Ballowal Saunkhri. The study area lies in subhumid subtropical climate having hot summers and cold winters. The experiment on maizewheat system has a combination of FYM and fertilizer treatments. The plots, 43.2m 2 (5.4m × 8m) in size, were replicated thrice in randomized complete block design (RCBD). The treatments of synthetic fertilizers and FYM compared.
