Influence of various organic manures with chemical fertilizers on increasing growth, yield and nutritional quality of potato was studied. The experiment consisted of seven treatments including T0: Control, T1: 75% recommended fertilizer dose (RFD); T2: 100% RFD, T3: 75% RFD + Kazi compost (5 t/ha), T4: 75% RFD + Kazi compost (3 t/ha), T5: 75% RFD + Poultry manure (3 t/ha) and T6: 75% RFD + Cowdung (5 t/ha). Among the organic manures, Kazi compost performed the best which compensated up to 25% of recommended inorganic fertilizers and significantly improved the growth components, yield parameters, tuber yield and nutrient uptake by potato. In field performance, Kazi compost @ 5 t/ha was effective followed by poultry manure and can be recommended for better growth, yield and nutritional quality of potato. Bangladesh J.

Lack of sustainable soil fertility management system is a critical challenge in the highlands of Awi Zone. Important physicochemical properties of the soil are below the critical level to support crop growth. Hence, a study was undertaken with the aim of improving the yield of potato through organic treatments and sound crop rotation system. Two rotation systems and four levels of organic treatments were factorially arranged and laid out in RCBD with four replications. The organic treatments were: V1 = 0 t/ha farmyards manure (FYM); V2 = 2.5 t/h fresh sesbania green manure (FSB) V3 = 5 t/ha FYM; and V4 = 5 t/ha FYM +2.5 t/ha FSB applied in fixed plots for three years. Indeed, the rotation systems varied from year to year to estimate the changes in potato tuber yields due to the differences in crop rotation systems. Tuber yields of potato showed increasing trend over the period of the three years with the lowest in the first year, intermediate in the second year and the highest in the third year across all treatments. Among all, the highest total potato tuber yield (35.15 t/ha) was obtained at the combined application of 5 t/ha FYM +2.5 t/ha FSB and clover-wheat-potato rotation system in the third year. The treatment combination increased total potato tuber yield by 140% and 41% over that of the first and the second years and would be recommended as ecologically sound option in improving the productivity of potato.

To investigate the effects of Farm Yard Manure (FYM) and nitrogen fertilizer on the characteristics of potato crop, an experiment was carried out in split plots based on completely randomized blocks during the crop year 2012-13. The experiment was performed in three replications for each of FYM in three levels (control, 20 and 40 t/ha) and nitrogen fertilizer derived from urea in four levels (control, 100, 200 and 300 kg/ha). The results revealed that the treatment of 40 t/ha of FYM on the total dry weight (204.0 g), average tuber weight (92.58 g), average yield (34,040) respectively were significant (P<0.01). It is also proved that treatment effect of 300 kg of nitrogen fertilizer on plant height (59.55 cm), bulb diameter (6.168 cm), total dry weight (203.9 g) and the dry matter (23.81%). The investigation of the interaction effect of FYM and nitrogen fertilizer on potato proved to show no significant differences between the mentioned treatments and the measured characteristics....

Field experiments were conducted in three consecutive summer seasons of 2005 to 2007 to study the effect of integrated nutrient management on soil health and productivity of potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) under rainfed condition. The experiment was laid out in a split plot design with eight nutrient management practices (combinations of organic manures viz, farm yard manure (FYM), poultry manure (PM), vermicompost (VC) and www.ccsenet.org/jas 224 inorganic fertilizers in main plots and seed tuber treatment with three biofertilizers (Azotobactor, phosphorus solubilizing bacteria (PSB) and Azotobactor + PSB) in sub plots. The results showed that 50 % of the recommended dose of NPK through inorganic + 50% recommended dose of nitrogen (RDN) through organic manures (FYM, PM or VC) or 100% recommended dose of NPK through inorganic fertilizers alone favorably influenced the tuber yield, nutrient uptake, soil fertility and paid higher returns compared to other treatments. Seed treatment with Azotobactor + PSB proved better in tuber yield, nutrient uptake and recorded higher returns as compared to sole treatment of either Azotobactor or PSB. Three years pooled result revealed that integrated application of 50 % of recommended NPK through inorganic and 50 % RDN through PM recorded significantly highest tuber yield (22.73 t/ha) closely followed by 100 % recommended NPK through inorganic (22.20 t/ha) which were 228 % and 223 % respectively, higher than control. Integrated application of inorganic and organic fertilizers and seed treatment with Azotobactor + PSB biofertilizers improved tuber yield, nutrient uptake, and gave higher return as compared to other treatment combinations. Total organic carbon (TOC), soil microbial biomass carbon (SMBC), available N, P, and K status of the soil after 3 years were maximum when 50 % recommended dose of NPK were applied through inorganic and remaining 50 % RDN through PM.

An experiment was carried out at the Germplasm Center, Department of Horticulture, Patuakhali Science and Technology University (PSTU) during November 2014 to March 2015 to find out the growth and yield of two indigenous potato varieties as influenced by organic manures. Two factors experiment consisted of two indigenous potato varieties viz., Shilbilati and Lalpakri and five different types of organic manures 0 (control), 15 t ha –1 cowdung, 12 t ha –1 vermicompost, 5.0 t ha –1 mustard oil cake and 7.0 t ha –1 poultry litter designated as T 0 , T 1, T 2, T 3 and T 4 respectively. Significant variations were observed between potato varieties and sources of plant nutrients in respect of all growth and yield parameters. The variety Shilbilati showed better performance in case of most growth and yield parameters compared to the variety Lalpakri. Among the characteristics of growth and yield of potato, mustard oil cake @ 5 t/ha gave the highest results compared to control and other treatments. The treatment combination Shilbilati × mustard oil cake @ 5 t/ha gave significantly greater results on growth and yield parameters. The maximum number of stem per hill (15.62), the tallest plant (96.19 cm), maximum number of leaves per plant (27.61), the highest tuber per hill (18.48), tuber weight (508.0 g), the maximum gross yield of 23.13 t/ha and the maximum marketable tuber yield (20.74 t/ha) were obtained from the treatment combination of Shilbilati × mustard oil cake @ 5 t/ha. The variety Shilbilati and mustard oil cake @ 5 t/ha alone and their combinations were more effective for better growth and yield compared to Lalpakri in combinations with organic manures.
