Yield maximization of hybrid rice (Oryza sativa. L.) through integrated nutrient management

The experiment was laid out in Randomized Complete Block Design (RCBD) with ten treatments replicated thrice. The treatments consisted of 100%, 75% & 50% recommended doses of nutrients (RDN) through chemical fertilizers and 25% & 50% RDN through organic sources like Farm yard manure and Blue green algae (BGA). Application of 75% of recommended NPK through inorganic + FYM @ 10 t/ha + BGA @ 15 kg/ha recorded significantly higher plant height, more no. of tillers/hill and yield.
