This study aims to recommend fertilization based on the nutrient status of N and K in rainfed rice fields; therefore, it is necessary to conduct a soil analysis to formulate fertilizer recommendations based on the nutrient status of N and K. This research was carried out in Bombanon Village, Mantoh District in July 2021. The chemical properties of the soil analyzed were N (Kjeldahl) and K (HCl25%). The result of soil analysis then matched with the PPT criteria for soil chemical properties status and Balitbangtan guidelines of N and P fertilization for rice crops. The results showed that the N contents at T1 and T3 were low, whereas T2 had a moderate N content. K content at the entire sampling sites were considered moderate. This study recommended N and K fertilization of 275 kg/ha and 50 kg/ha of urea and KCl, respectively, without returning straw.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
