Md. Kumar et al., EFFECT OF INTEGRATED APPLICATION OF PRESSMUD AND PADDY HUSK WITH FERTILIZERS ON YIELD AND QUALITY OF SUGARCANE (SACCHARUM-OFFICINARUM), Indian Journal of Agronomy, 41(2), 1996, pp. 301-305
A field experiment was conducted on a medium black soil at Gangavati o
n integrated nutrient management in sugarcane (Saccharum officinarum L
.). Application of organic sources (pressmud and paddy husk) were feud
to substitute 25% of the recommended fertilizers in getting higher ca
ne and sugar yields. Economics worked out indicated that application o
f pressmud in conjuction with 100% recommended fertilizers gave higher
