Abstract: |
Observation studies were carried out to assess quality of local aromatic rice and sustaining yield of improved rice by applying different nutrient sources during 2006. One study was organic source of nutrients on aromatic rice Kalanamak for sustainable yield and quality. And, another was rate of Saubhagya (organic manure) and EM (effective organism) effects on rice variety, Radha 4. Regarding quality ofaromatic rice, Saubhagya at 500-1500 kglha, EM spray, Neem leaf at 2.5 tlha and FYM at 5 tlha were tested on Kalanamak rice. Kalanamak produced 2240-2708 kglha grain yield with different treatment applicattons. FYM application of 5 tlha seemed to be-high causing crop lodged during flowering. Quality of aromatic rice could be maintained at low cost of cultivation through organic source of nutrient management. For the sustainable yield of improved rice, treatments were applied in seed production plots. Experimental design was factorial split plot consisting two levels of EM in main plots and three fertilizer sources in subplots. The fertilizer rate was 900 kglha Saubbagya, recommended NPK through inorganic fertilizers and, combination of organic and inorganic fertilizers. Rice grain yield ofRadha 4 with the application of inorganic fertilizers at recommended rate produced the highest grain yield followed by the combination of Saubhagya and inorganic fertilizers. This rate of Saubbagya could not supply required amount of NPK but supply other micronutrients to the rice crop. The effect of EM was found encouraging in rice yiel4. Commercial organic manure production could be encouraged through the application of Saubhagya in rice production. However, its application rate should be increased from 900 to 1500 kglha for two way benefits of production and soil fertility in the long run. It is possible if present price of Saubhagya is lowered from Rs 6 to 4/kg. |
