ABSTRACT

Greater emphasis is now laid on increasing the productivity and thereby the total production of pulses in order to mitigate the protein hunger of growing population of our country. Hence, cultivation of high yielding input responsive varieties of green gram is being recommended. In addition to other management practices such as irrigation and plant protection, green gram responds markedly to plant population level and mineral nutrition especially, when applied in balanced amount and by appropriate methods. However, the response of grengram to fertilizer application varies from place to place and variety to variety. Hence, to have an understanding on the works done on so far the literature pertaining to response of greengram to fertilizer application through soil and foliage is reviewed in this article.
