Effect of seaweed saps on growth and yield improvement of transplanted rice in old alluvial soil of West Bengal

Abstract: On summer rice, foliar spray was applied thrice at different concentrations (0, 2.5, 5.0, 7.5, 10.0 and 15.0%, v/v) of seaweed extracts (namely, Kappaphycus sp. and Gracilaria sp.) along with the recommended dose of fertilizer (RDF). The highest grain yield was recorded with the applications of 15% Kappaphykus sap + RDF, followed by 15% Gracilaria sap + RDF extract resulting in 41.47 and 34.99% increases, respectively compared to the control. The maximum straw yield was also achieved with 15% seaweed extract a… Show more

“…Foliar application of Gracillaria corticata and Kappaphycus alvarezii extracts on Phaseolus mungo and Pennisetum typhoides (Murugalakshmi Kumari et al, 2003), wheat (Singh, 2016) and maize (Singh et al, 2015a) has been found to increase growth. Application of 15% Kappaphycus alvarezii and Gracilaria edulis extract accelerate the growth attributes of rice (Pramanick et al, 2014). Minimum germination rate was reported with higher concentration (10% conc.)…”

“…Seaweed extract have been reported to increased yield and quality in different crops such as Rice [24], Phaseolus aureus [25], Capsicum annuum [26], Black gram [27], Brassica napus [28], Grapes [29], Cucumber [30], Strawberry [31] and Tomato [32]. Application of seaweed gel on tomato plants promote vegetative growth along with flowers and fruits growth [33].…”

“…Esto se debió a que como se mencionó anteriormente, el impacto de una mayor retención de agua del suelo en la plantación sin la aplicación del extracto tuvo un mayor efecto en el contenido de clorofila de las hojas y por consiguiente en el rendimiento de frutos. Sin embargo, para condiciones de humedad homogénea del suelo, estudios previos han reportado incremento en rendimiento por la aplicación de extractos de algas marinas en diferentes cultivos (Fornes et al, 2005;Zodape et al, 2011;Pramanick et al, 2014). Con relación a la calidad del fruto, la aplicación del extracto no afecto los grados °Brix del jugo de los frutos; sin embargo, el mayor grado de acidez se obtuvo con la aplicación del extracto solo al suelo y el menor pH con la aplicación al suelo y vía foliar (Tukey, α≤ 0.05) (Cuadro 3).…”

“…previous studies have reported an increase in the yield for the application seaweed extracts in different crops ( (Fornes et al, 2005;Zodape et al, 2011;Pramanick et al, 2014). Regarding fruit quality, the application of the seaweed extract had no effect in the Brix grades of the fruit juice; however, the higher grade of acidity was obtained with the application of the seaweed extract only to the soil and the lower pH with application to the soil and foliage (Tukey, α≤ 0.05) ( Table 3).…”
