Effect of Sulphur and Fym on Yield and Nutrients Uptake by Garlic (Allium Sativum L.) in an Alluvial Soil

The results revealed that each successive increase in level of S upto 40 kg ha⁻¹ significantly increased bulb yield and uptake of nutrients by the crop during both the years. Likewise, the application of FYM @ 20 t ha⁻¹ also increased the bulb yield significantly with increased uptake to N, P and K nutrients. The Sand FYM application showed synergistic interaction effect on the uptake of S and ultimately on the bulb yield of garlic. Maximum bulb yield was obtained in the treatment where S was applied @ 40 kg ha⁻¹ with 20 t FYM ha⁻¹.
