A field experiment was conducted at the Research Farm of Birsa Agricultural University,
Kanke, Ranchi, Jharkhand, during 2020-21 and 2021-22. The experimental soil textural class
was sandy loam with pH 5.56, EC 0.03 dS/m, and OC (5.91 g/kg). The soil was low in
available nitrogen (218.63 kg/ha), medium in available phosphorus (15.75 kg/ha), and
available potassium (178.32 kg/ha). The experiment was laid out in a split-plot design with
three replications. The experiment consisted of four main plot treatments viz., conventional
tillage–conventional tillage (CT–CT), conventional tillage–zero tillage (CT–ZT), zero
tillage–conventional tillage (ZT–CT) and zero tillage–zero tillage (ZT-ZT) and subplot has
four treatments with different sources of organic nutrient management viz., 100% N through
FYM, 100% N through VC, 50% N through FYM + 50% N through VC and 75% N through
FYM + 25% N through VC. The pooled data revealed that significantly highest value of pod
length (11.60 cm), number of pods/plant (10.34), pod fresh weight (4.91 g), number of
seeds/pod (6.84), 100 seed weight (40.56 g), green pod yield (82.87 q/ha) and haulm yield
(102.04 q/ha) were observed in conventional tillage-conventional tillage. Among organic
sources, pod length (11.62 cm), number of pods/plant (10.62), pod fresh weight (5.00 g),
number of seeds/pod (6.88), 100 seed weight (40.69 g), green pod yield (88.91 q/ha) and
haulm yield (104.28 q/ha) were observed maximum in 100% N through VC.
