YIELD RESPONSE OF MUSTARD, BORO AND T. AMAN RICE TO NPKS FERTILIZERS IN HIGH GANGES RIVER FLOODPLAIN SOIL (Pages : 49 - 54)

The experiment was conducted at the Farming System Research site, Bagherpara, Jessore. during during three consecutive years of Mustard, Boro and T. Aman season of 2000 to 2003 to determine the response and to find out the optimum rate of nutrients (NPKS) for Mustard- Boro and T. aman rice on the yield under AEZ 11a. Four different levels of NPKS were assigned in RCB design with 4 replications. Average of three years study reveals that a considerable response of Mustard, Boro and T. aman rice to NPKS was observed. However, the response to N and P was more distinct in comparison to K and S. Similarly, the response was more evident in Boro rice compared with T. aman rice. Yield of Mustard increased up to the application of 86, 15 and 30 kg/ha of NP and S, respectively. Yield of Boro rice increased up to the application of 125, 7 and 12 kg/ha of N, P and S, respectively. But in T. aman yield was increased up to the application of 80, 8 and 14 kg/ha of NP and S, respectively. From the regression analysis it was found that the relationship was almost quadratic in nature. The application of 84-13-25 kg NPS/ha for Mustard, 121-6-10 kg NPS/ha for Boro rice and 75-7-12 kg NPS/ha for T. aman rice was the beneficial and most economically optimum fertilizer dose in High Ganges River Floodplain Soil under AEZ 11a.
