Synopsis

Groundnut (Peanut),an important energy rich unpredictable legume, since its response to nutrient application is always not optimistic. This crop is cultivated all over the World, mainly for vegetable oil production.It has been found that low yields in groundnut is mainly due to inadequate and imbalanced use of nutrients.High prices of chemical fertilizers as well as environmental hazards along with other detrimental effects of continuous application of inorganic fertilizers at higher doses, led to combination of organic and inorganic nutrient sources which helps to maintain high productivity both in crop and soil.Timing of fertilizers application is also of equal importance to enhance the efficiency of applied fertilizers and organic manures. In this research, efforts have been made to find out judicious combinations of organic and inorganic fertilizers and best management practices for sustainable production of short duration high yielding groundnut, which can be economically feasible too. This book can be quite useful for students, teachers, researchers, farmers and for other people related with groundnut production system.
