Abstract:
Rice is life is most appropriate for Indians as this crop plays a vital role in our national food security and is a means of livelihood for millions of rural households. Adequate and balanced supply is a pre- requisite to optimum plant growth and realizing potential crop yield. An experiment was conducted to evaluate yield and yield attributing parameters of rice using different fertilizer recommendations methods. The experiment consists of three replications and fourteen treatments viz., farmer’s practice, Blanket, STL, IARI and STCR methods of fertilizer recommendation through inorganic and organic combinations and also through solely inorganic in randomized block design (RBD). The results reveals the yield parameters, the highest grain and straw yields and the highest gross returns and net returns were found higher with the combination of STCR method through inorganic and organic for 8 t ha-1. The B:C ratio was the highest in the targeted yield of 8 t ha-1 through inorganic alone. It is concluded that STCR method of fertilizer recommendations inveterated their supremacy on the higher productivity of rice and profitability to farmers.
