Abstract :
<p> Field investigation was carried out at the farmer’s field, Devanur village, Ariyalur District, Tamilnadu during July 2007 </p> <div>– December 2008 to find out the effect of integrated nutrient management practices on the economics of glory lily </div> <div>(Gloriosa superba L). The experiment was laid out in split–plot design with three replications. The treatments consisted </div> <div>of different organic manures in main plots (M1–Control, M2–Farm Yard Manure (FYM) @ 12.5 t ha–1, M3– Enriched Farm Yard Manure (EFYM) @ </div> <div>750 kg ha–1 and M4–Pressmud compost @ 5 t ha–1) and different levels of inorganic nitrogen in sub–plots (S0–Control, S1–100% N, S2–75% N, S3–</div> <div>50% N, and S4–25% N ). The results of the experiment revealed that application of EFYM@750 kg ha–1 (M3) recorded the highest gross income, </div> <div>net income and return per rupee invested. Among the different levels of inorganic nitrogen, application of 100 % N (S1) recorded the highest value </div> <div>of economics. With regard to interaction effect, application of EFYM @ 750 Kg ha–1 + 75 per cent recommended N (90 kg ha–1) (M3S2) gave the </div> <div>highest gross income of Rs.1663686 ha–1, net income of Rs.1288024 ha–1 and return per rupee invested of Rs. 4.62.</div>
