Objective:• To improve awareness, entrepreneurial and skills of the undergraduate students in modern techniques of INM for a rewarding career ahead • To explore the imperceptible changes in soil fertility for its improvement and sustenance of soil resilience to achieve desired crop productivity through INM • To update on the nutrient management technology in relation to its importance, application as a tool for crop production
Pre Event Description :
Integrated Nutrient Management (INM) is the maintenance of soil fertility and supply of plant nutrients to an optimum level for sustaining the desired crop productivity through optimization of benefits from all possible sources of plant nutrients in an integrated manner. This concept of nutrient management brings cultural operations, chemical fertilizers, organic sources, legumes, crop residues and biofertilizers together in a systematic way to supply plant nutrients in an optimum level. The deficit of 10 million tonnes of inorganic nutrient production in India can be compensated through INM practices to the maximum extent. Therefore, the dependency on chemical fertilizers is drastically reduced.
