Effect of different organic manures on yield, nutrient availability and soil microflora in transplanted rice

摘要

Field investigation was conducted during wet season of 2012-13 at Zonal Agricultural Research Station, Brahmavar, Bengaluru, to study the effect of different organic manures on growth and yield of transplanted rice. The results indicated that application of 50 per cent recommended dose of nitrogen (60 kg ha~(-1)(RDN) through goat manure + 50 per cent N through bio-digested liquid manure increased grain yield and straw yield in transplanted rice which is evidenced by increase in soil microflora resulting in better availability of nutrients to crop.
