Study of Aerobic Rice under Varying Fertility Levels in Relation to Iron Application

Study on Different Varieties of Aerobic Rice with N, P and K Fertigation Levels on SCMR Values, Yield Effecting Parameters and Drymatter Production

“…The lowest was recorded by MTU at S 0 which was on par with RNR 15048 at S 0 . Increase in straw yield with increase in NPK / N fertilizer doses was also reported by Rakesh et al, (2012) and Malla .…”

“…Increased NPK nutrition under fertigation resulted in uniform distribution and adequate availability of nutrients and water through laterals in the root zone of the crop which in turn promoted the photosynthesis and resulted in higher dry matter production. Increased dry matter production with increase in NPK levels up to 180-90-60 kg N-P 2 O 5 and K 2 O along with iron sulphate application was reported by Rakesh et al, (2012). Ramamoorthy et al, (1998) observed increased yield attributes leading to higher dry matter production as a result of frequent irrigations.…”

“…Among interactions, higher panicle length was observed in Anagha at S 125 (22.5 cm) and the lowest in RNR 15048 at S 75 .Nonsignificant influence of irrigation methods, schedules and water management practices was reported by Balamani et al, (2012) and Patel et al, (2010). Significant influence of varieties was noticed by Patel et al, (2010) and Rakesh et al, (2012) Data on grain yield, straw yield is represented in Table 4. The grain yield ranged from 1103 to 2578 kg ha -1 .…”

Effect of Bio-fortification through Organic and Inorganic Sources of Zinc and Iron on Growth, Yield and Quality of Aromatic Rice

“…These findings are in close agreement with Sandhu and Bansal (2001) Rakesh et al, (2012), Xiaoyun et al, (2012. Inorganic sources of Zn and Fe aided to the fast growth of the crop compared to organic sources as during vegetative stage the demand of nutrients is quite high and micronutrients from fertilizers are easily available to the plants in sufficient quantity.…”
