Relative efficiency of Jhabua rock phosphate along with single super phosphate, farmyard manure and phosphobacteria on rice (Co 43) dry matter production, yield parameters and yield

Abstract

The investigation was carried out to study the effect of Jhabua rock phosphate (JRP) in combination with single superphosphate (SSP), farmyard manure (FYM) and phosphobacteria (PB) on yield parameters and yield of rice crop (Co 43) in clayloam soil. Combined application of JRP and SSP in 1:1 ratio along with FYM (12.5 ha) and PB significantly increased the drymatter production, yield (straw and grain) and yield parameters like number of productive tillers per hill, number of filled grains per panicle, panicle length and thousand grain weight over application of 100 per cent JRP alone but comparable with application of 100 per cent SSP alone.

Keywords: Jhabua rock, phosphate, Phosphobacteria and Dry matter production.
