Abstract: |
The on-farm evaluation of Low Cost Direct Seeded Rice Technologies :was conducted at Belwa VDC, Parsa district and Fattepur VDC, Bara district during Kharif seasons, 2000101 to 2002103. The experiments consisted offour treatments duringfirstyear andjive treatments during last two years. The treatments were : Direct Seeded Rice on !:-eds (dry-seed) by FIRB (T,), Direct Seeded Rice on flat (d1y seed) by Power Tiller Drill (T j, Direct Seeded Rice on puddled flat fields (germinated seed) by Drum Seeder (I J), Manual Transplanting on puddledfl.atfields i.e. Farmer's Practice (T.J and Manual Transplanting on beds formed by FIRB (1'5). Grain yields produced by the treatments were not significant in first year, while, they were highly significant in last two years. The highest mean grain yield of 4352 kglha was produced with treatment T; and the lowest of 3536 kglha with treatment T5. Straw yields were highly significant in last year, while, they were at par in first two years. The highest mean straw yield of 8209 kglha was found with treatment T3 and the lowest of 5818 kglha with treatment T5. Economically, Direct Seeded Rice by Drum Seeder showed the highest marginal return of29111 Rslha, while, Direct Seeded Rice by FIRB, (T1) . (27427 Rslha) and by Power Tiller Drill (1'1), (27366 Rs/ha) were equally good. Manual Transplanting on beds showed the least marginal return of 21795 Rslha . Compared to Manual Transplanting on flat (F.P.), Direct Seeded Rice by FIRB and Power Tiller Drill consumed lesser water without disturbing the soil microbial activities. |
