Abstracts |
The maximum yield of corm in elephant foot yam can be obtained by the application of 75% RDF (through inorganic source)+25% RDF (through organic source) 4-5 kg AMF/ha+5 kg Azospirillum/ha. INM is better option than pure application of chemical fertilizer, which, if continuously used, may degrade soil fertility and in long run effort for sustainable agriculture may go in vain. |
