Effect of Vermicomposting on Growth, Physiology and Yield Traits of Mung Bean (Vigna radiata L.) Cultivar under Salinity Stress
Author(s): Swapnali Savata Kalukhe and Indra Jeet Chaudhary*
Salinity is one of the main environmental problems that causes yield loss by affecting physiological and morphological characteristics of plants. The vermicomposting plays a vital role in growth and development of plants. Despite that it’s also reduced harmful effects of various environmental stresses on plants. Therefore, the present study conducted for investigation of salinity stress and protective role of vermicomposting on various traits of Mung bean (Vigna radiata L.) cultivar. The findings suggest that 50 ppm salinity levels caused least impact than 100 ppm salinity levels. The application of vermicomposting drastically increased the growth and yield of mung bean cultivar. These results demonstrate the remarkable ability of vermicomposting to promote healthy mung bean growth even under challenging saline conditions. Based on these findings, the study strongly recommends t.. Read More»
