Response of Pre-Released Grain Sorghum Genotype to Feretilizer Level

A field experiment entitled Response of pre-released grain sorghum (Sorghum bicolar L. Moench) genotypes to different fertilizer levels was undertaken during kharif 2022-23 at Sorghum Research Station Vasantrao Naik Marathwada Krishi Vidyapeeth Parbhani (Maharashtra). Results confirmed that the application of fertilizer plays a vital role in growth and yield of sorghum genotype. Genotype highly responsive to 150% RDF (120:60:60 NPK kg ha?¹) recorded higher growth attributes yield attributes grain yield fodder yield nutrient concentration and uptake gross monetary and net monetary returns over 50 % and 0 % RDF. However it was at par with 100% RDF. Hence application of 100 % RDF was found economically optimum and remunerative over rest of fertilizer levels.
