Abstract:
Selaqui, Dehradun (Uttarakhand), during the 2016 kharif season. Six different organic manure treatments were combined in the experiment. Green manuring with Sesbania aculeata + foliar spray of Panchgavya (3%), green manuring with Sesbania aculeata + foliar spray of fish amino acid (FAA 3%), green manuring with Crotalaria juncea + foliar spray of Panchgavya (3%), green manuring with Crotalaria juncea + foliar spray of fish amino acid (FAA 3%), basal application of FYM (12 t ha^-1) + foliar spray of Panchgavya (3%) and basal application of FYM (12 t ha^-1) + foliar spray of fish amino acid (FAA 3%)) in main plots and three systems of planting (System of Rice Intensification (SRI), Conventional Transplanted Rice (CTR) and Direct Seeded Rice (DSR)) in sub plots, taken in split plot design with three replications. The significantly higher gross returns (₹ 143990 ha^-1), net returns (₹ 89571 ha^-1) and B-C ratio (2.65) were fetched by growing of rice under basal application of FYM + Panchgavya + SRI (T₁₃).
