Abstract


The influence of lucerne hay soil as well as foliar application of the juice revea- led that soll application of lucerne hay significantly increased the N, P and K contents in the rice grain and straw samples over absolute control and lucerne juice spray. NPK plus lucerne hay soll applied pots registered higher nutrient contents in the grain and straw of IR 20 rice as well as uptake of the nutrients than the other treatments. The available N status in the post-harvest soil samples was higher under NPK plus lucerne hay soil applied pots and that of P under NPK plus three foliar application of lucerne juice treatments. Highest available K in the soil was noticed in the pots which received the treatment NPK plus lucerne hay soil application and one foliar spray of lucerno juice on 25th day of planting.
