The application of integrated fertilizers significantly increased seed yield to 1785 kg ha-1 in castor crops, enhancing oil content to 48.5%.
Results indicate that enriched farmyard manure combined with recommended doses of fertilizers improves soil nutrients, including N, P, and K.
The field experiment utilized an observational analysis of soil quality and crop productivity at the Tapioca and Castor Research Station during a seasonal cycle.
Findings may enable increased sustainability in castor cultivation, especially under rainfed conditions, indicating potential for broader agricultural applications.
