Article Main Content

Rice production has increased almost doubled over the last decade in Bangladesh as a result of additional application of chemical fertilizers and high yielding varieties. Present experiment was undertaken for elucidating the combined effect of organic materials (OM) and nitrogen (N) fertilizer on yield contributing attributes and yield of transplanted aman ( T. aman) rice. Experiment was set in a factorial randomized complete block design (RCBD) with three replications. Five types of OMs viz. RS (rice straw), VC (vermicompost), RHB (rice husk biochar), CD (cowdung) and PM (poultry manure) considering two ton carbon per hectare and three level of N viz. N0, N100 and N150 kg ha-1 were used in this experiment. Findings revealed that among the five OMs; cowdung significantly improved the studied parameters. Besides 150 kg ha-1 dose of N has pronounced effect on the grain yield of T. aman rice. In general OMs alone cannot contribute to the maximum yield and yield contributing parameters. Maximum plant height (98.5cm), no of tillers (20), no of effective tillers (18), no of grains (145.0 g), no of filled grains (138), no of unfilled grains (7.0) per panicle, length of panicle (27.5 cm), 1000-seed weight (23.65g), straw yield (8.97 t ha-1), grain yield (5.41 t ha-1) and biological yield (14.34 t ha-1) was attributed by the mixed application of PM and N150 dose of nitrogen. While maximum harvest index (45.09%) was found in the plot received RS in combination of N150 treatment and its minimum value was recorded also solely in RS treated plot. Findings suggest that the use of PM along with 150 kg ha-1 N can render superior crop growth and yield of T. aman rice.
