This study aims to determine the effect of several types of seaweed extracts on growth and yield of rice. On summer rice, three types of bio-stimulants (Soligro, Opteine, and Biozyme) along with vermi-wash were applied in different formulations i.e. granular and foliar application and at different growth stages (Basal, Tillering, and Panicle initiation Stage) along with recommended dose of fertilizer (RDF). The highest grain yield was found under 100% RDF+ Opteine liquid at 30 DAT (Days after transplanting) and 60 DAT treatment resulting in an increase by 35.03% grain yield over control but the straw yield was highest under the application of 100% RDF+ Soligro Granule at 30 and 60 DAT. Nutrient uptake (N, P and K) by grain and straw and soil microbial population were found maximum under 100% RDF + Soligro Granule at 30 DAT and 60 DAT.
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.
