Abstract:
A field experiment was carried out to study the impact of different manures on soil properties and yield of rice in lateritic soil at Department of Agronomy, Dr.B.S. Konkan Krishi Vidyapeeth, Dapoli, Dist. Ratnagiri (Maharashtra) during kharif seasons of 2004, comprising thirteen treatment combinations where four sources of manures i.e. FYM, poultry manure, vermicompost and goat manure and three levels of manures i.e. @ 2.5, 5.0, 7.5 t ha-1 were applied, with one absolute control. The data revealed that application of poultry manure was observed to be superior source as compared to FYM, vermicompost and goat manure; whereas in case of levels, application of manures @ 10 t ha-1 to rice was found to be more effective than their lower levels and rest of the treatment combinations in view point of yield of rice, physico-chemical properties and nutrient status of soil.
