A nutrient omission plot technique (NOPT) study in RCBD with 8 treatments (omission (-) of N, P, K, NP, NK, PK and no nutrient omission)and 3 replicates per treatment was made on rice at Port Blair, Andaman and Nicobar Islands during kharif 2015 to ascertain yield response and find out the most crucial nutrient for fertilization.The results revealed that yield response to fertilizers (NPK) was 2.63 t / ha (60.74%). The yield response of P (23.3 %) got multiplied by 2.16 and 2.60 times when combined with N and K applications as compared to their individual effects. Indigenous N, P and K supply capacity of the soil was estimated as 70.6, 10.0 and 80.0 kg/ha. Agronomic efficiency (kg grain / kg nutrient applied) was severely limited by P omission (10.13). The economics(Rs/ha) of rice cultivation indicates that omission of NPK & NP fertilizers results in losses. The highest profits realized with no omission (+NPK) were reduced by 52.3% with P omission. Omission of K followed by N and NK has less impact on profits. Rice crop duration got prolonged and shortened under P and N omission while K omission has no such effect.

An experiment was carried out during the Kharif 2002 and 2003, to study the productivity and nutrient use efficiency of hybrid rice (Oryza sativa L.) in response to integrated use of organic and inorganic sources of nutrients at Research farm, IGAU, Raipur (CG). In all 12 treatments, comprising of different N, P and K levels and its conjunction with organic fertilizers were laid out in Randomized Block Design with 3 replications. The results revealed that application of inorganic fertilizer level of 150:80:60 kg NPK ha-1 significantly increased number of active leaf, leaf area, leaf area index and dry matter accumulation at later stages as compared to lower level of inorganic fertilizer. The conjunction of 100:60:40 kg NPK ha-1 along with PM or N blended with CDU found to be equally effective to that of inorganic fertilizer level of 150:80:60 kg NPK ha-1 for above growth parameters. The chlorophyll content during crop period under above level was the highest under said treatment. The highest crop growth rate was observed between 60-90 DAT followed by 90 DAT-harvest and 30-60 DAT, respectively. The per day accumulation of dry matter during 60-90 DAT period was almost three to four times of that accumulated during 30-60 DAT. Thereafter growth rate almost declined till maturity during both the years.The increased concentration of N at different growth stages and its uptake by plant helped in increasing the yield components and grain yield. The critical analysis of grain yield observations revealed that conjunction of lower levels of inorganic fertilizer (100:60:40 or 50:30:20 kg NPK ha-1) along with CDU or PM gave the saving of 50 kg N, 20 kg P and 20 kg K ha-1 for the cultivation of hybrid rice. Moreover, the higher buildup of available N and K has been also observed under said combination of organic and inorganic fertilizer treatments. The application of 150:80:60 kg NPK ha-1 along with PSB gave the highest buildup of available phosphorus. Inorganic level of 150:80:60 kg NPK ha-1 gave the highest production efficiency and productivity rating index, which was followed by application of inorganic fertilizer of 100:60:40 kg NPK ha-1 along with PM and blending of N with CDU, respectively. The application inorganic fertilizer of 50:30:20 kg NPK ha-1 + PM gave the highest nutrient efficiency during both the years. The highest input cost, net profit and per rupee investment was found under 150:80:60 kg NPK ha-1 followed by application of 100:60:40 kg NPK ha-1 along with PM.

Background: The present investigation was concentrated to determine the nutrient uptake capacity of different varieties of rice (Oryza sativa L.) under delayed planting condition. The purpose of the study is to evaluate the nutrient content in straw and grain in different varieties of rice to understand the nutrient acquisition capacity. Methods: The experiment was conducted during kharif-2018 in a split plot design with three replications at Agricultural Research Farm, BHU, Varanasi with a combination of four rice varieties (HUR-3022, DRR-44, HUR-4-3 and HUR-105) as subplot factor and three dates of planting (06/09/2018, 13/08/2018 and 20/08/2018) as main-plot factor. Result: Among the varieties, DRR-44 was observed efficient for N, P and K absorption under timely planting conditions and recorded higher N content (1.01%) than HUR-3022 (0.91%) and HUR-105 (0.86%). The P (0.45%) and K (0.29%) content were observed highest for the variety DRR-44 on the first date of planting (06/08/2018). Maximum N, P and K uptake by grain and straw were recorded in DRR-44 followed by HUR-3022 and HUR-105. DRR-44 was also the highest grain and straw yielder. Thus, improved varieties of rice with higher nutrient use efficiency should be the priority for quality and higher yield of straw and grain of the crop.

SUMMARYThe area under hybrid maize cultivation is increasing rapidly across South Asia. However, information regarding the proper nutrient management for modern stay-green maize hybrids in India is not adequate resulting in low productivity. Existing nutrient management practices are not able to capture the momentum change in the scenario of soil nutrient supply capacity and plant nutrient demand for achieving higher yield target. The present study aims at establishing the site-specific nutrient management (SSNM) package for an inceptisol (West Bengal, India). Soil indigenous nutrient supply capacity and nutrient use efficiency was also evaluated by using the nutrient omission plot technique. The experiment was laid out in strip-plot design, assigning three maize hybrids (P 3522, P 3396 and Rajkumar) in the vertical strip and nine fertilizer treatments [50% RDF/Recommended dose of fertilizer, 75% RDF, 100% RDF (200-60-60 kg N-P2O5-K2O ha−1), 125% RDF, 150% RDF, 100% PK, 100% NK, 100% NP and control (zero-NPK)] in the horizontal strip, with three replications. Results of the experiment revealed that the differences among cultivars were generally non-significant. The maize hybrids showed greater yield response to fertilization with N (4.14 Mg ha−1) during winter, followed by K (2.54 Mg ha−1) and P (1.58 Mg ha−1). Indigenous nutrient supply was estimated 107.2, 37.6 and 107.7 kg ha−1 for N, P and K, respectively. Both average agronomic efficiency (AE) and recovery efficiency (RE) were increased with 50% RDF and it decreased with further increase in NPK levels up to 150% RDF. The average internal efficiency (IE) was higher with 50% RDF closely followed by the treatment with absence of N. As grain yields and gross return over fertilizer (GRF) under 75 to 150% NPK treatments were similar, nutrient doses of 150 kg N, 45 kg P2O5 and 45 kg K2O ha−1 were recommended as optimum for maize hybrids.

Field and laboratory experiments were conducted at the Bangabandhu Sheikh MujiburRahman Agricultural University, Gazipur, during boro season of 2015-2016 to determine the response of rice crop (BU Dhan 2) to different plant densities under different fertilizer levels. The variety was grown with three fertilizer levels viz. recommended (57-10-8-7-0.9 kg NPKSZn ha-1), 50% higher (114-20- 16-14-1.8 kg NPKSZn ha-1) and 50% lower (28.5-5-4-3.5-0.45 kg NPKSZn ha-1) than recommended level and three plant spacing (20 cm x 25 cm, 20 cm x 20 cm and 20 cm x 15 cm) representing wider, standard and closer plant densities. Nutrient uptake of the variety was higher at higher level of fertilizer and closer plant spacing. The highest grain yield 5.18 t ha-1 of the variety was associated with the highest nutrient uptake under higher dose of fertilizer at closer plant spacing. This treatment combination also showed the highest nitrogen (86.53 kg ha-1), phosphorus (9.85 kg ha-1), potassium (103.9 kg ha-1), sulphur (12.27 kg ha-1) and zinc uptake (265.76 g ha-1) of the variety, although nutrient use efficiency was higher at lower fertilizer level under wider plant density.

Animal wastes may be promoted as an alternative to mineral fertilizers that remain unaffordable to the overwhelming part of smallholder farmers in Sub-saharan Africa. However for an efficient use, mechanisms that underly their impact on crops should be well understood. This study was conducted in mesocosm to evaluate impacts of two ways of composted poultry litter (CPL) addition on growth and nutrient use efficiency by cucumber. It included three treatments with five-bucket replicates each: Control, CPL applied on soil surface (CS) or buried to 10 cm-depth (CB). Dry CPL was added at the rate of 0.5 kg bucket-1. At harvest, root distribution was examined in the 0-5, 5-10 and 10-20 cm depths. Dry biomasses of roots, shoot and fruits were also determined and allowed for calculation of diverse indexes of biomass allocation (root:shoot ratio, root weight ratio, stem weight ratio, leaf weight ratio) and nutrient use efficiency (factor productivity of the compost, partial factor productivity of nutrients, agronomic efficiency of compost, and apparent agronomic efficiency of nutrients). The results showed that application of CPL led to a significant improvement of all considered parameters except for the leaf weight ratio which was higher in the control (44.1±3.3) than in CS (28.1±1.9) and CB 31.2±3.5). Total lateral root length was significantly higher in CS than in CB (113.5±10.7 cm vs. 75.5±9.0 cm). The number of lateral roots per plant in the 0-5 cm soil layer was higher in CS than in CB (5.4 vs. 1 root plant-1); the reverse was observed in 5-10 cm (1.2 vs. 4.4 root plant-1). Both fresh fruit yield and total dry mass were positively correlated to root attributes. These were themselves negatively impacted by soil acidity. All nutrient use efficiency indexes were higher in CS than CB. The CPL improved the agronomic performance of cucumber particularly when applied at soil surface.
