Abstract

A field experiment was conducted during the rabi season in the year 2018 at Tirhut College of Agriculture Farm, Dholi (Muzaffarpur), to study the “Response of Potato (SolanumtuberosumL.)to Integrated Nutrient Management” with variety Kufri Ashoka. Treatments consisted of five levels of RDF (0, 75, 100, 125, 150%) and two sources of organic manures (farmyard manure @ 20.0 t/ha and spent mushroom substrate @ 4.0 t/ha).The results revealed that there was a significant difference in total nutrient uptake, the protein content of tuber and the fertility status of the post harvested soil. Application of 100 % RDF coupled with FYM 20 t/ha or SMS 4 t/ha had performed well, found statistically at par to treatments, 125% RDF and 150% RDF integrated with FYM 20 t/ha or SMS 4 t/ha respectively.
