Abstract

In order to investigate the effect of chemical fertilizers and manure on yield components of cumin, considering the importance and benefits of intercropping of experimental, mixed cultures and PP-R in split plot in the form of randomized complete block design with three replications in Research Farm, College of Agriculture, Zabol University in 1391-1392 was conducted. Fertilizers were considered as a major factor in the two levels of chemicals and integrating livestock – half chemicals and Density at six level included pure Cumin, pure Plantago Psyllium, and density of 25 percent, 50 percent, 75 percent and 100 percent of Plantago Psyllium increase in fixed cultures Cumin. Based on the results the fertilizer factor has significant effect on the number of seeds per umbel, the number of umbels per plant of cumin, dry weight and grain yield per unit area of Plantago Psyllium, a significant effect was observed . The effects of density factor in dry weight, number of spike and grain weight per unit area for Plantago Psyllium and number of seeds per umbel, number of umbels per plant and Thousand grain weight , Yield Per unit area, Harvest index and essential oil percentage for Cumin in pure culture were significantly different. Also, the interaction effect of fertilizer and density on grain yield per unit area, Essential oil and dry matter percentage and harvest index were significant in both plant. The Cumin highest yield was 461.43 kg per hectare and PP was 577.56 kg per hectare of pure cultures with chemical fertilizer. The highest land equivalent, 1.47 density mixed with 100% PP, was obtained which indicated the superiority of the mixed culture than in pure culture.
