摘要
Field experiments were carried out to evaluate the relative efficacy of organic manures in improving the productivity and pest tolerance of rice growing in a lateritic soil. The effects of three commercial manures: processed city waste (PCW), vermicompost (VC) and oil cake pellets (OCP), were assessed in comparison to farmyard manure (FYM) and inorganic fertilizer all at the same total N applied. Of the organic manures tested, FYM produced the maximum straw and grain yields. Differences in yield among the organic manure treatments were mainly attributed to variation in the amounts of available N, P, K and micronutrients. Effect of manures on soil physical condition was not studied. The uptake of N, P and K by rice plants with FYM was significantly greater than all other commercial manures and inorganic fertilizer. The tolerance of rice plants to attack by pathogens and pests, measured in terms of grain yield was highest in the treatment with FYM. Among the commercial manures PCW showed the greatest promise and emerged as a potential alternative to FYM.
