Effect of Farm Yard Manure, Green Manure and Vermicompost on Growth and Yield of Rice

A field experiment was conducted during kharif season 2022-23 at student’s instructional farm, Chandra Shekhar Azad University of Agriculture and Technology, Kanpur (U.P.). The present experiment having 9 treatment combinations replicated thrice in randomized block design, Rice variety CSR-36 was grown with growth, yield, yield attributing characters. The grain and straw yields increased with integration of green manure +farm yard manure + vermicompost treatment i.e., 75% RDF+25% N through FYM+GM+VC. The maximum plant height (90 DAT) and number of tillers per hill of rice (127.13 cm) and (59.37). The highest grain and straw yield were observed 54.47 qha­-1 and 64.49 qha-1 in the treatment 75% RDF + 25 % N through FYM + GM + VC. The treatment combination 75 % RDF + 25 % N through FYM + GM + VC came out to be the best dose for most of the characters of the rice crop under study.
