 ABSTRACT

The present study on nutrient status in Pongamia pinnata L. (Pierre)  seedling from different seed sources shown the highest N content (79.16 mg plant -1) in leaves, phosphorous content   highest  (0.81 mg plant -1) in leaves, phosphorous content highest in the root ( 0.79 mg plant -1) in Raipur seed sources. The highest potassium content (14.77 mg plant -1) in root was observed in the seed source of Raipur. Therefore healthy seedling was grown for plantation purposes. In addition high nutrient content seedling is also desirable to enhance the early growth of Pongamia.

Keywords: Biofuel, Growth, Plantation, Seedling.
