EFFECT OF NITROGEN LEVELS ALONE AND IN COMBINATION WITH FARM YARD MANURE, POTASSIUM AND PHOSPHORUS ON GRAIN YIELD
Journal Title: International Journal of Agriculture Sciences - Year 2016, Vol 8, Issue 47
Abstract
A field study was conducted to study the effect of nitrogen levels alone and in combination with farm yard manure (FYM), phosphorus (P) and potassium (K) on mean grain yield of rice and wheat crop. In this study, seven treatment combinations were evaluated: T1 –Recommended fertilizer dose (RDF), T2– N120, P0K0, T3 – N157 P0K0, T4 – N100+ FYM, T5 – N137+ FYM, T6 – N120P30K0, T7 – N120P0K30. Results indicated that treatment, receiving nitrogen along with FYM produced a maximum grain yield of 73.4 in rice & 72.1 q/ha in wheat In T4&T5 treatments in both kharif and rabi season. The minimum grain yield was obtained treatment T6 & T7. Thus, the use of N and P or N and K in combination with farm yard manure (FYM), phosphorus (P) and potassium (K) improved grain yield of both rice and wheat crop whereas, the use of N and P or N and K alone could not enhance the yield potential markedly.
