The soil samples were taken before sowing and after harvest from the field that was sown black cumin and determined the rate of major and minor plant nutrients. For this reason, soil samples were taken from the depth of 30 cm as 2-3 kg and analyzed. The harvested black cumin yielded approximately 1,350 kg/ha seed. The analyses made in soil samples were pH, salinity, organic matter and lime, P, K, Ca, Mg, Na, Cu, Fe, Zn and Mn. According to the results, the parcel soil has not salt problem, and is little alkaline, more limy and little humic, good for phosphorus and very rich with respect potassium before sowing. At the same time, the parcel soil samples after harvest were little saline, little alkaline, more limy, poor humic, good for phosphorus and very rich with respect potassium.展开更多

The present work ascertain the effect of certain soil amendments against pre emergent and post emergent rot of French bean in the agro climatic condition of Manipur, Four soil amendments: cow dung (COD), sawdust (SD) + paddy husk (PH), decomposed floating phytomat (DFP) was tried in field conditions in four different combinations. These have been often used by the traditional farmers. A locally available commonly cultivated pole type of French bean has been used for the study. Disease incidences in plots treated with these amendments were then compared with that of control plots where no amendments were made. The plots with a combined treatment of the soil amendments showed maximum seed germination and least post emergent rot against sclerotinia rot. But DFP showed effectiveness against rhizoctonia rot with maximum seed germination while saw dust showed maximum decrease in post emergent rot against rhizoctonia rot. The plots treated with organic soil amendments showed statistically significant positive effect against the pathogens as compared with untreated control plots.展开更多
