Agricultural use of domestic waste water is a cheap way of its disposal as it is rich in organic materials and plant nutrients (N, P, K, Ca, Mn and Zn). Use of domestic waste water in agriculture may contribute considerable to alleviate the pressure in using fresh water resources. The present study has been carried out to study the effect of combined sewage and industrial effluent on rice crop. The observations revealed insignificant (p>0.05) stimulatory effect on shoot length, root length, no. of nodes, no. of leaves, no. of grains on panicle, dry wt. of whole plant, dry wt. of panicle and dry wt. of grains during Ist year study period and root length, no. of nodes, no. of leaves, dry wt. of whole plant and avg. wt. of grains during 2 nd year study period. Whereas significant stimulatory effect was observed on avg. wt. of grains during 1 st year study period and shoot length, no. of grains on panicle, dry wt. of panicle, dry wt. of grains during 2 nd year study period.
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.
