A study was made on integrated nutrient management in the Bush bean −T. Aus −T. Arnan cropping pattern over three years at BRRI Farm, Gazipur (AEZ-28) during 2000-02. Different packages of chemical fertilizers in combination with organic materials (cowdung and rice straw/bush bean stover) were evaluated to find out a suitable combination for obtaining higher yield of crops. There was a positive effect of crop residue recycling and residual effect of cowdung on the yield of the next crops. Both the soil test based fertilizer and the cowdung with IPNS basis fertilizer treatments gave higher pod yield of bush bean. For T. Aus rice, the highest yield was obtained with the treatment where bush bean stover was used along with IPNS based chemical fertilizer. Again the highest yield of T. Aman rice was observed in the residual effect of cowdung with reduced amount of fertilizer. An excess N uptake was recorded where N was added as fertilizer only. The apparent balance (nutrient added through manures and fertilizers minus nutrient removed by crops) for both N and K was negative while that for P & K was mostly positive.Key Words: IPNS; cowdung; rice straw; bush bean; rice; nutrient balance.

Alleviation of poverty and achievement of zero-hunger target and food security are significant challenges faced by agricultural planners worldwide. Improving many agronomic approaches, which have drastic effects on crop growth and yield, is urgently needed to report this aim. Replacement of a part of chemical fertilizers by organic manure through a simple technique of using minimum effective dose of sufficient and balanced quantities of organic and inorganic fertilizers in combination with specific microorganisms, called INM, has a bright solution in this area. Recently, several investigators reported that integrated use of chemical fertilizers with organic manure is becoming a quite promising practice not only for maintaining higher productivity but also for greater stability to crop production. In addition, INM acts as a source of energy, organic carbon, and available nitrogen for the growth of soil microbes and improvement of physical properties of soil, and also have great residual effect on subsequent crops. So, the key component of the INM goal is to reach the eco-friendly practice through the harmonious properties of both sources by making a combination that can be used for decreasing the enormous use of chemical fertilizers and accreting a balance between fertilizer inputs and crop nutrient requirement, maintaining the soil fertility, optimizing the level of yield, maximizing the profitability, and subsequently reducing the environmental pollution. Lastly, INM is a tool that can offer good options and economic choices to supply plants with a sufficient amount of nutrients in need and can also reduce total costs, create favorable soil physiochemical conditions and healthy environment, eliminate the constraints, safeguard the soil nutrient balance, and find safety methods to get rid of agriculture wastes.

The study aimed to investigate an effect of organic fertilizer applied to rice in the first planting season for unfertilized soybean as second crop followed by inorganic and biofertilizer applied in the third season on soybean growth and yield under the rice-soybean-soybean cropping pattern in 2016/2017. The main plot was organic: (1) without organic amendment, (2) 10 t·ha−1 of chicken manure, and (3) 10 t·ha−1 precomposted rice straw. The subplot was inorganic N and P fertilizers and commercial biofertilizer (consisting of Rhizobium, nitrogen-fixing bacteria, and P-solubilizing bacteria) applied at planting of soybeans in the second dry season: (1) control (no inorganic and biofertilizer), (2) 50 kg urea ha−1, (3) 100 kg SP36·ha−1, (4) 50 kg urea + 100 kg SP36 ha−1, (5) biofertilizer, (6) biofertilizer + 25 kg urea ha−1, (7) biofertilizer + 75 kg SP36 ha 1, and (8) biofertilizer + 25 kg urea + 75 kg SP36 ha−1. Soybean planted on the first dry season after rice harvested was not fertilized (untreated). The results showed that the chicken manure amendment increased grain yield of soybean in the second season, i.e., from 1.03 t·ha−1 (without organic amendment) to 1.27 t·ha−1, an increase of 23%. There was no effect of rice straw on soybean grain yield. In the third season, however, the residual effect of straw compost or chicken manure increased soybean grain yield by 8% and 20%, respectively. Both straw compost and chicken manure also showed a positive effect on the use of inorganic and biofertilizers in increasing soybean productivity.

Different combinations of chemical fertilizers and organic manure were applied for sustainable crop productivity in the cauliflower-stem amaranth -jute cropping pattern. The experiment was conducted at farmer’s field in Multilocation Testing (MLT) site of Pakshi, Pahna over three years. There were five combinations of chemical fertilizers (CF) and poultry manure (PM) along with absolute control arranged in a randomized complete block design. The results revealed that all three crops showed significant yield for fertilizer and poultry manure use. Higher yields were obtained with 50% CF + 50% PM followed by 75% CF + 25% PM treatments where cauliflower equivalent yield was increased by 85% and 78%, respectively, over control. This indicates a positive residual effect of poultry manure on the subsequent crops. From the economic points of view, the highest marginal benefit cost ratio (MBCR) was attained in 100% chemical fertilizer due to its lower variable cost followed by 75% CF + 25% PM treated plots. However, gross margin was higher in 50% CF + 50% PM combination for its higher total yield. Key Words: Chemical fertilizer; poultry manure; productivity. DOI: 10.3329/bjar.v34i1.5761Bangladesh J.

Field experiment on Tomato-Okra-Indian spinach cropping pattern was     conducted at a farmer’s homestead of Tangail (AEZ 8) during 2007-08 and 2008-09 to find out a suitable combination of chemical fertilizers and organic manure for sustainable crop yield. There were 5 treatments comprising different percentages of the recommended chemical fertilizers (RCF) with two levels (0 and 5 t/ha) for tomato and three levels (0, 2.5 and 5 t/ha) for okra each of poultry manure and cowdung. No organic manure was used for the third crop Indian Spinach. The treatments were arranged in Randomized Complete Block Design with four replications. An amount of 75% dose of RCF (N150P40K80S20Zn2B1 kg/ha) along with poultry manure @ 5 t/ha appeared as the best suited combination providing tomato yield 95.3 t/ha and 88.2 t/ha for the first year and  second year, respectively. Again, an amount of 75% dose of RCF(N120P35K70S15Zn2B1 kg/ha) along with poultry manure @ 2.5 t/ha appeared as the best package providing the highest okra yield (15.03 t/ha and 12.98 t/ha). The highest yield (36.3 t/ha and 33.7 t/ha for the first and second year, respectively) of Indian Spinach was recorded from (75% recommended N + PM residue), which was statistically identical with (100 % recommended N), but significantly higher over rest of the treatments. Poultry manure performed better over cow dung. A package of 75% recommended chemical fertilizer along with 5 t PM/ha appeared as the best suited combination providing higher yield and economic return.

A field trial was conducted to validate some fertilizer application approaches for Boro-Green manure (GM) -T. Aman cropping system at the Bangladesh Rice Research Institute (BRRI) Farm, Gazipur (AEZ-28: high land) during the period from Boro 1999-2000 to T. Arnan 2000. Five different application approaches of inorganic and organic fertilizers along with their residual values were evaluated. A positive effect of GM on the yield of T. Aman rice was observed. Application of cowdung (CD) @ 6 t/ha (at 15 % moisture) along with integrated plant nutrient system (IPNS) based chemical fertilizer in Boro season followed by green manuring with dhaincha (in Kharif-l season) and then growing T. Aman rice (in Kharif-ll season) with reduced doses of chemical fertilizer (60% N, 50% P, 50% K, and 50% S) substantially increased grain yield and narrowed down the N, P, and K balance in soil. This fertilizer application approach may be practiced for sustainable crop production. No appreciable yield loss in T. Arnan rice (2nd crop) occurred due to the application of reduced doses of P, K, S, and Zn indicating the beneficial residual effect of fertilizer applied to the first crop (Boro rice) of the cropping pattern. The N uptake was in excess of the N added as fertilizer. An improved balance of P, S, and Zn was observed. But the K balance was negative. However, application of cowdung and incorporation of dhaincha slightly improved the K balance of the soil. The highest gross return of Tk. 86,270 was obtained with the above practice (treatment T4)Key Words: Chemical fertilizer; application; wet land rice.DOI: 10.3329/bjar.v34i1.5747Bangladesh J. Agril.

Field experiments were conducted during 2007-2010 to evaluate the agro-economic productivity of BRRI Aman rice varieties and Rabi vegetables at the Bangladesh Rice Research Institute (BRRI) in silty clay loam soil. Five Aman rice varieties having different growth durations and three winter vegetables viz., tomato, red amaranth and bush bean were evaluated in split plot design with three replications. Mungbean was grown in Kharif-I season. Rice varieties did not differ significantly in terms of grain yield (t ha-1). Among the three vegetables, the yields of tomato, red amaranth and bush bean were 35.02, 7.53 and 4.33 t ha-1, respectively. Average yield of Mungbean was 0.89 t ha-1. In case of rice equivalent yield (REY), Tomato-Mungbean-BRRI dhan33 cropping pattern produced comparatively high average REY (29.95 t ha-1) followed by Tomato-Mungbean-BRRI dhan39 (27.33 t ha-1) cropping pattern. Among the tested cropping patterns, Tomato-Mungbean-BRRI dhan33 and Tomato-Mungbean-BRRI dhan39 were more profitable than other patterns.

The effect of integrated use of manure and fertilizers on crop yield, nutrient uptake and soil fertility was studied in the Boro-fallow-T. Aman cropping pattern over two years. The experiment was set up at Bangladesh Agricultural University (BAU) farm, Mymensingh under the AEZ 9 (Old Brahmaputra Floodplain). The field trial consisted of eight treatments and control (no fertilizer or manure), 100% chemical fertilizers (CF), and IPNS based six treatments with six types of manure. Cowdung (CD), CD slurry, Trichocompost (TC) and vermicompost (VC) were added to soil at 5 t ha-1 and poultry manure (PM) and PM slurry applied at 3 t ha-1. For all IPNS treatments, nutrient supply from manure was adjusted with that from chemical fertilizers. In each crop cycle, manure was applied to the first crop (Boro rice) and the residual effect was evaluated on the succeeding crop (T.Aman rice). The IPNS based treatments significantly increased the grain and straw yields of Boro rice and it had also positive residual effect on T.Aman rice. Trichocompost and vermicompost, among the six IPNS treatments, demonstrated higher crop yield and that was followed by poultry manure slurry and cowdung slurry. Integrated use of manure with fertilizers gave on an average 8.3-33.8% and 2.9-18.3% higher grain yield in Boro and T. Aman rice, respectively over sole fertilizers treatment. Higher nutrient uptake by crops (N, P, K & S) was also observed in IPNS treated plots. The IPNS treatments improved soil fertility in terms of increasing organic matter, N, P and S contents of soil after two crop cycles. The study suggests that manure and fertilizers should be used in an integrated manner to achieve sustainable crop yield, without incurring loss to soil fertility.SAARC J.

Optimal Cropping

To improve farm incomes in developing countries, the foremost question that the farmer must address himself to is: what cropping pattern best uses the fixed resources in order to get the highest returns? During the last decade, the agricultural economists have shown great interest in applying the tools of linear programming to individual farms. Most of the studies conducted elsewhere have shown that, under existing cropping pattern, farm resources were not being utilized optimally on the small farms.[l, 4]. We conducted a survey in the canal-irrigated areas of the Punjab province of Pakistan1 to investigate into the same problem. This short note aims at identifying the opti¬mal cropping pattern and to estimate the increase in farm incomes as a result of a switch towards it on the sampled farms.

AbstractCombined application of biochar with fertilizers has been used to increase soil fertility and crop yield. However, the coupling mechanisms through which biochar improves crop yield at field scale and the time span over which biochar affects carbon and nitrogen transformation and crop yield are still little known. In this study, a long-term field trial (2013–2019) was performed in brown soil planting maize. Six treatments were designed: CK—control; NPK—application of chemical fertilizers; C1PK—low biochar without nitrogen fertilizer; C1NPK, C2NPK and C3NPK—biochar at 1.5, 3 and 6 t ha−1, respectively, combined with chemical fertilizers. Results showed that the δ15N value in the topsoil of 0–20 cm layer in the C3NPK treatment reached a peak of 291 ‰ at the third year (2018), and demonstrated a peak of 402 ‰ in the NPK treatment in the initial isotope trial in 2016. Synchronously, SOC was not affected until the third to fourth year after biochar addition, and resulted in a significant increase in total N of 2.4 kg N ha−1 in 2019 in C3NPK treatment. During the entire experiment, the 15N recovery rates of 74–80% were observed highest in the C2NPK and C3NPK treatments, resulting in an annual increase in yields significantly. The lowest subsoil δ15N values ranged from 66‰ to 107‰, and the 15N residual rate would take 70 years for a complete decay to 0.001% in the C3NPK. Our findings suggest that biochar compound fertilizers can increase C stability and N retention in soil and improve N uptake by maize, while the loss of N was minimized. Biochars, therefore, may have an important potential for improving the agroecosystem and ecological balance. Graphic abstract
