Abstract:
An experiment was conducted at Plant Pathology Section, College of Agriculture, Nagpur during 2023-2024. A six main treatment i.e. Paddy straw, Cotton stalk, Tur stalk, Wheat straw, Soyabean straw and sugarcane bagasse. The enrichment of biofertilizers and their combinations i.e. Mesorhizobium ciceri, Azotobacter chroococcum, Pseudomonas fluorescencs was procure from Department of Plant Pathology, College of Agriculture, Nagpur. and it was to investigate their percent loss in weight after decomposition of agriculture wastes material. It was observed that the maximum loss of weight the treatment A4B2 (Wheat straw × Azotobacter chroococcum) at 30 and 60 days i.e. 23.50%, 58.17% and 141.00 g, 349.02 g and weight of straw after (30 and 60 days) 459.00 g and 250.98 g followed by treatment A1B5 (Paddy straw × Mesorhizobium ciceri + Azotobacter chrooccocum) at 30 and 60 days 20.87%, 57.67% and 104.35g, 288.35g and weight of straw after (30 and 60 days) 395.65 g and 211.65 g.
