Yield Maximization of Rice (Oryza sativa, L.) through Site Specific Nutrient Management under Medium Deep Black Clay Soils of Tungabhadra Command (original) (raw)

2020

Abstract

Rice is an important food crop of India, grown over an area of 43.44 mha with a production of 112.4 mt and with a productivity of 2.5t/ha (Anon 2016). At the current population growth rate of 1.5% the rice requirement projected by Indian Institute of Rice Research would be around 156mt by 2030. Fertilizers and irrigation are two key factors in increasing the rice productivity. The current blanket fertilizer applications followed by the farmers in Tungabhadra command in Karnataka are high and imbalanced resulting in huge losses of nutrients with reduced nutrient efficiency and International Journal of Current Microbiology and Applied Sciences ISSN: 2319-7706 Volume 9 Number 6 (2020) Journal homepage: http://www.ijcmas.com
