Abstract:
A field experiment was conducted at the Instructional farm, Barrister Thakur Chhedilal College of Agriculture and Research Station, Bilaspur (C.G.), during kharif season of 2020-21, to evaluate the influence of “Effect of organic manures on yield of scented rice (Oryza sativa)’’. Totally 09 different treatments consisting of different organic and inorganic and fertilizers, alone and in both combination have been tried. Among the different treatments, treatment T₈ (100% RDF (60:40:30) NPK kg ha^-1) recorded significantly enhanced yield parameters viz., length of panicle plant^-1 (cm), number of seed panicle^-1, test weight (1000 seed weight in g), grain yield (q ha^-1), straw yield (q ha^-1) & harvest index (%) which was at par with treatment T₅ (100% RDN through green leaf manure + Decomposed cow dung enriched with rock phosphate amendment (7.59q ha^-1), T₄ (100% RDN through Compost + Decomposed cow dung enriched with rock phosphate amendment (7.59q ha^-1)) and T₇ (Decomposed cow dung enriched with rock phosphate @ (12qha^-1)) and proved significantly superior over all other remaining treatments.
