Studies on the comparative efficiency of EM-Biokasht and chemical fertilizers in improving the yield attributes of wheat

The results revealed that maximum grain yield (5.56 t ha-1) was obtained with the application of standard recommended dose of chemical fertilizer. However, it was followed by the treatment where 1000 kg ha-1 of EM- Biokasht was applied at sowing. It can thus be concluded that although use of EM- Bio...

Description
Summary:The results revealed that maximum grain yield (5.56 t ha-1) was obtained with the application of standard recommended dose of chemical fertilizer. However, it was followed by the treatment where 1000 kg ha-1 of EM- Biokasht was applied at sowing. It can thus be concluded that although use of EM- Biokasht did not produce comparable results with that of NPK application, but keeping in view the high cost of NPK fertilization, the use of EM-Biokasht at the rate of 1000 kg ha-1 can be recommended for obtaining a reasonable wheat yield with the additive benefit of producing priced wheat under natural farming system.
