摘要:In today’s era of ecofriendly operation, it is necessary to overcome the pollution problems. Recycling of industrial waste water in crop production is one of the ways of disposal of waste water alternatively helped in attaining the high crop productivity goals. The effect of distillery industry wastes viz., spentwash, biocompost and spentwash ash on soil biological properties was examined through a field experiment using Cumbu Napier hybrid grass. The study revealed that spentwash at the rate of 50 kilo l ha-1 at full dose with recommended dose of nitrogen and phosphorus registered the highest microbial and enzyme activities. The spentwash, being loaded with organic compounds could bring remarkable changes on the biological properties of soils and thus influences the soil fertility.
