Integrated Plant Nutrient Management (IPNM) in Pigeonpea
Nutrient requirements of pigeonpea are:
Stunted growth. Narrowing of leaves with pale green or yellow. Inter-veinal chlorosis starting from tip of leaflets and spreading to the remaining area leaving only the midrib green.
Light-green patches, irregular in outline, appear randomly around the leaf margin. Patches may turn brown, particularly on young and severely affected leaves; such leaves are shed. Weak and prostrate stems.
Even-yellowing across lamina of young leaves. Eventually, old leaves become yellow.
Difficult to diagnose. In general plants are stunted. The foliage remains dark-green. Shedding of old leaves.
