The experiment was conducted in the farm of Sher-e-Bangla Agricultural University, Dhaka, Bangladesh during the period from August to December 2012 to study the effect of various combinations of organic manure and inorganic fertilizer on the growth, yield, chlorophyll and nutrient content of rice var. BRRI dhan33. The treatment consists of T1: 100% Inorganic fertilizer (Recommended dose) + 5 ton poultry manure (PM) /ha , T2: 75 % N of recommended dose + 5 ton PM /ha, T3: 50 % N of recommended dose + 5 ton PM /ha, T4: 25 % N of recommended dose + 5 ton PM /ha, T5: 75 % S of recommended dose + 5 ton PM /ha, T6: 50 % S of recommended dose + 5 ton PM /ha, T7: 25 % S of recommended dose + 5 ton PM /ha, T8: 100% Inorganic fertilizer and T9: 5 ton PM /ha. Significant variation was found in growth and yield parameters as well as in chlorophyll content and nutrient content of aman rice. The most of the growth parameters ( plant height, leaf length and diameter, leaf number and total tiller plant-1) results were found better in 100% Inorganic fertilizer + 5 ton PM ha-1 which was statistically similar with 75 % of recommended dose of S + 5 ton PM ha-1, 75 % of recommended dose of N + 5 ton PM ha-1and followed by 50 % of recommended dose of S + 5 ton PM ha-1,respectively while the lowest from 5 ton/ha PM treatment. On the other hand, significantly higher chlorophyll “a”, “b” and total chlorophyll content were recorded in 100% Inorganic fertilizer + 5 ton PM ha-1and it was closely followed by 75 % of recommended dose of N + 5 ton PM ha-1 and lowest in 5 ton PM ha-1. Number of effective tillers plant-1, panicle length, number of rachis plant-1, filled grain plant-1 and fresh weight of plant were highest in 100% Inorganic fertilizer + 5 ton PM /ha and it was either statistically similar or closely followed by 75 % of recommended dose of S + 5 ton PM ha-1. Higher grain yield (4.18 t ha-1) was recorded in T1 which was statistically similar with T5 (4.13 t ha-1) whereas lowest grain yield (3.67 t ha-1) was from sole PM. Similarly, N content in grain and N, K content in straw were also showed similar trend. S content in grain and P, S content in straw were higher in 75 % of recommended dose of S + 5 ton PM /ha compared to other fertilizer treatments. Lowest N and S content in grain and N, P, K, S content in straw were found from the treatment using poultry manure only.Bangladesh Agron. J. 2015, 18(1): 99-111

Effect Of Age

The experiment was conducted at the Agronomy Field Laboratory, Bangladesh Agricultural University, Mymensingh during June to December 2014 with a view to finding out the effect of age of seedlings at staggered planting and nutrient management on growth of aromatic fine rice (cv. BRRI dhan38). The experiment comprised three ages of seedlings viz., 30, 45 and 60-day old and six treatment of nutrient managements viz. control (no manures and fertilizers),  recommended dose of inorganic fertilizers, 50% of recommended dose of inorganic fertilizers + cowdung @ 5 t ha-1, 75% of recommended dose of inorganic fertilizers + cowdung @ 5 t ha-1,  50% of recommended dose of inorganic fertilizers + poultry manure @ 2.5 t ha-1 and 75% of recommended dose of inorganic fertilizers + poultry manure @ 2.5 t ha-1. The experiment was laid out in a randomized complete block design with three replications. The effect of age of seedlings and nutrient management and their interaction were significant on crop growth characters of aromatic fine rice. The result revealed that the highest plant height, total tiller hill-1, total dry matter production hill-1 and CGR were found when 30-day old seedlings were transplanted. Among the nutrient managements the highest growth parameters was obtain in 75% of recommended dose of inorganic fertilizers + poultry manure @ 2.5 t ha-1 due to the continuous supply of nutrients by the combination of organic and inorganic fertilizer which led to better growth in plants. In 30-day old seedlings with 75% inorganic fertilizer + poultry manure @ 2.5 t ha-1 treatment performed best in case of all growth parameters, while the lowest one was observed in 60-day old seedlings with control. Therefore, 30-day old seedlings with 75% inorganic fertilizer + poultry manure @ 2.5 t ha-1 treatment might be a promising practice in aromatic fine rice cultivation in terms of growth performance.

Nitrogen is one of the main inputs of oat cultivation and its efficient management is a basic for harvesting the maximum potentiality of the crop. An investigation was conducted at field laboratory of Agrotechnology Discipline, Khulna University, Bangladesh to find out the effect of nitrogen fertilizer on growth, yield and yield contributing characters of oat during 2017-2018. The experiment was designed in randomized complete block with seven N rates (0, 30, 45, 60, 75, 90 and 105 kg ha-1) in triplicate run. Application of N nitrogen significantly increased the growth and yield of oat. The results showed that 105 kg ha-1 N was supreme in all growth parameters and straw yield but 90 kg ha-1 N was better for main yield parameters and grain yield. The maximum plant height (101.27 cm), leaf number (11.90), tillers plant-1 (9.93), plant density (41.33 m-2) and straw yield (4.70 tha-1) were recorded with  105 kg ha-1 N application, whereas the highest grain yield (1.76 t ha-1) was found with 90 kg ha-1 N. From the results of the present research, it may be concluded that application of 90 kg N ha-1 could be used for oat production in soils of AEZ 13, Bangladesh. Bangladesh Agron.

Plant spacing determines to a greater extent crop performance in terms of growth and yield. The production of crop with organic fertilizer also plays a vital role in organic agriculture. Field studies were conducted to evaluate the effects of spacing and poultry manure on the growth, yield and quality of onion. Three spacing regimes were carried out consisting of (15cm x 15 cm , 20 cm x 20 cm and 25 cm x 25 cm) and four levels of poultry manure at ( 0, 5, 10 and 15 t /ha ). The effects of spacing and poultry manure were evaluated for 2 years based on plant growth, yield, nutrient concentration, uptake and proximate composition of onion plant. Leaf thickness, bulb and shoot fresh weights were significantly increased by the wider spacing of 20 cm x 20 cm and 25 cm x 25 cm, compared with the narrower spacing of 15cm x 15 cm in both seasons. However, highest total dry yield (1.82 and 1.58) t /ha, shoot yield (2.31 and 1.32) t /ha and total fresh yield (13.69 and 12.55) t/ha were obtained with the spacing of 20cm x 20 cm in both years. Similarly, application of poultry manure increased leaf thickness, bulb and shoot fresh weights and yields compared with the control. Generally, using 10 t/ha poultry manure has a superior effect on proximate composition and most of growth parameters and yield components achieved the highest nutrient concentrations and uptake on most of the macro and micronutrients in leaves and bulbs as compared with the control in both years.

An experiment was conducted at the Agronomy Field Laboratory, Bangladesh Agricultural University, Mymensingh during January to June 2016 to observe the effect of water, nutrient and weed management practices on the yield and quality of aromatic Boro rice (cv. BRRI dhan50). The experiment consisted of three water managements viz. conventional flood irrigation, AWD (Alternate Wetting and Drying) and SRI (System of Rice Intensification); two nutrient managements viz. recommended dose of inorganic fertilizers (Urea, TSP, MoP, Gypsum, ZnSO4 @ 250, 120, 120, 100, 10 Kg ha-1, respectively) and 25% less than recommended dose of inorganic fertilizer + poultry manure @ 2.5 t ha-1; and three weed managements viz. weedy check (control), two hand weeding at 20 and 40 DAT, and pre-emergence herbicide (Rifit 33EC) followed by post emergence herbicide (Fast klin 10WP) application. The highest number of effective tillers hill-1, grains panicle-1,grain yield and protein (%) in grain were obtained in SRI water management which was followed by AWD and conventional flood irrigation. Between the two nutrient management practices, application of 25% less than recommended dose of inorganic fertilizer + poultry manure @ 2.5 t ha-1 produced higher number of effective tillers hill-1,grains panicle-1,1000-grain weight, grain yield and protein (%) in grain than in organic fertilizer. Among the weed management practices, application of pre-emergence herbicide (Rifit 33EC) followed by post-emergence herbicide (Fast Klin 10WP) produced the highest number of effective tillers hill-1,grains panicle-1,1000-grain weight, grain yield and protein (%) in grain followed by two weedings at 20 and 40 DAT while the lowest grain yield was obtained in weedy check. The highest number of effective tillers hill-1,grains panicle-1, grain yield and protein (%) in grain was found in SRI water management combined with 25% less than recommended dose of inorganic fertilizer + poultry manure @ 2.5 t ha-1 and application of pre-emergence herbicide followed by post-emergence herbicide. So, it may be concluded that, to get the highest grain yield in aromatic Boro rice, SRI method along with application of 25% less than recommended dose of inorganic fertilizer + poultry manure @ 2.5 t ha-1 and applying pre-emergence herbicide (Rifit 33EC) followed by post emergence herbicide (Fast Klin 10WP) could  be recommended.

The study compares the growth, yield, and proximate composition of Amaranthus hybridus, Amaranthus cruentus, and Amaranthus deflexus, grown with poultry manure and NPK in relation to the unfertilized soil of Ilorin, Nigeria. Viable seeds of the Amaranths raised in nursery for two weeks were transplanted (one plant per pot) into unfertilized soil (control) and soils fertilized with either NPK or poultry manure (PM) at 30 Kg ha−1 rate arranged in randomized complete block design with four replicates. Data were collected on plant height, stem girth, number of leaves, leaf area, and number of branches from 1 week after transplanting (1 WAT). Fresh weight, dry weight, and proximate composition were determined at 6 WAT. Except for the length, breadth, and number of leaves, the order of growth parameters and yield in the three Amaranthus species was NPK > PM > control. NPK grown Amaranthus species had the highest protein while PM-grown vegetables had the highest ash content. Crude fibre in A. cruentus grown with PM was significantly higher than NPK and the control. The NPK treatment of A. hybridus and A. deflexus had the highest crude fibre content. NPK and PM favoured growth and yield of the Amaranthus species but influenced proximate composition differently.
