An experiment was conducted during 2015-2016 in sandy loams at Jammu under the INM in maize-wheat system. The results revealed that the application of recommended levels of NPK to maize-wheat with FYM, VC and biofertilizers (Azotobacter and phosphate solubilizing bacteria) resulted in grain per cent and straw per cent increase over control in maize and wheat yields, respectively. Increasing levels of 50% N+ +VC+Azoto+PSB significantly increased the yield of both the crops. Integrated use of organic, inorganic and biofertilizers improved the soil status of available N, P, K, S over the initial values. A declining trend (, , , kg ha-1 ) from the initial value of available nutrients indicates a considerable mining of INM from the soil and suggest the need to adopt judicious organic, inorganic and biofertilizers. | Effect of organic, inorganic and bio fertilizers on soil physicochemical properties in rainfed maize-wheat cropping system of Jammu
