Abstract

The experiment was conducted at the Agronomy Field Laboratory, Bangladesh Agricultural University, Mymensingh. The experiment's objectives were to evaluate the performance of integrated management of poultry manure with chemical fertilizer urea and to seek water-saving technology that will allow rice (BRRI dhan 29) production to be maintained or increased in the face of declining water availability. The experiment comprised seven treatments viz. T1:100% N from poultry manure, T2:100% N recommended doses of prilled urea, T3:90% N from PU + 10% N from PM, T4:80% N from PU + 20% N from PM, T5: 70% N from PU + 30% N from PM, T6: 60% N from PU + 40% N from PM, T7: 50% N from PU + 50% N from PM. It was laid out in a split-plot design with three replications. The main plots were allocated for irrigation treatments (alternate wetting and dying and continuous flooding) and sub-plots for nitrogen treatments. Altogether, 42 unit plots were conducted, each measuring 2.5mx2.5m. The application of different nitrogen levels significantly influenced all the growth parameters. Irrigation levels significantly affected all the yield and yield contributing characters except plant height, number of ineffective tillers, panicle length, unfilled grain per panicle, 1000 grain weight and harvest index. The highest value of total tiller/hill (11.01), number of effective tillers per hill (9.72), filled grain per panicle (132.23), grain yield (4.80), straw yield (6.68), biological yield (11.47) was observed in the two-irrigation system while height value of non-effective tiller/hill (1.29). The effect of nitrogen treatment was found to be significant. On the other hand, the interaction effect of irrigation management and treatments significantly influenced all the yield parameters except plant height, No. of tiller/ hill, no. of non-effective tiller/hill, panicle length, unfilled grain/panicle and 1000 grain weight. The height value of all those parameters was recorded at the I1×T2 (continuous flooding ×100% N recommended doses of prilled urea). The lowest value of all these parameters was recorded at the I2×T1 (AWDI × 100% N from poultry manure) and I1×T1 (continuous flooding × 100% N from poultry manure). The integrated use of 90% N from PU + 10% N from PM appeared as the better practice because of reducing the considerable amount of prilled urea in Boro rice (cv. BRRI dhan 29) cultivation in terms of grain yield. Moreover, the best promising practice was obtained using 100% N recommended doses of prilled urea applied with continuous flooding (CF).
