Abstract
One important cereal crop that is essential to global food security and nutrition is wheat. Therefore, the method for managing crop nutrients is crucial. This study was therefore created to give the best conditions for Integrated Nutrient Management (INM) techniques on the soil nutrient content and uptake of the wheat variety HD-2967. Twelve treatments were set up in triplicate over the course of a two-year field experiment utilizing a randomised block design (RBD) and varied ratios of NPK, poultry manure, vermicompost, and other biofertilizers. The findings showed that, in comparison to the other integrated nutrient management (INM) treatments, The highest N content in grain is 1.94 % and in straw is 0.61 %, P content in grain is 0.41 % and in straw is 0.26%, K content in grain is 0.62 % and in straw is 1.30 % and Zinc content in grain is 38.52 ppm and in straw is 32.46 ppm was obtained under treatment T9 (75 % RDF + PM @ 1 t/ha + Azotobacter + PSB +KMB + ZSB). The highest N uptake in grain is 104.93 kg ha-1 and in straw is 45.29 kg ha-1, P uptake in grain is 21.97 kg ha-1 and in straw is 19.27 kg ha-1, K uptake in grain is 33.32 kg ha-1 and in straw is 96.02 kg ha-1 and Zn uptake in grain is 208.65 g ha-1 and in straw is 240.68 g ha-1.
