Abstract

The direct and indirect contribution of the forms of N, P and K on sorghum and green gram yields were obtained by using path analysis from the field experimental data. Out of the 13 variables, unhydrolysed N contributed the highest (76.4%) for sorghum yield and water soluble K (66.6%) for green gram yield. The indirect effect of other variables were comparatively more among themselves through unhydrolysed N for sorghum and through water soluble K for green gram yield.
