Description

Sesame (Sesamum indicum L.) is one of the world's oldest oil crops and has been cultivated in Asia from ancient times with longest history of its cultivation in India. Crop residue management is one of the emerging problems in agriculture sector. Conversion of organic waste to produce biochar is one viable option that can enhance natural rates of carbon sequestration in the soil, reduce farm waste and improve the soil quality. Biochar can effectively improve physical, chemical and biological properties of soil and thereby solve many of the soil limitations. An experiment was conducted on medium black calcareous soil at Junagadh, Gujarat, India. The results indicated that higheryield of sesame in summer season along with improved soil physico-chemical and biological properties can be achieved by application of microbial consortia enriched biochar 0.25 t/ha + vermicompost 1 t/ha or microbial consortia enriched biochar 0.25 t/ha + FYM 1.25 t/ha + vermicompost 0.5 t/ha or biochar 0.5 t/ha + vermicompost 1 t/ha.
