Abstract/ Executive Summary:

Chook-Chook 111 organic fertilizer was a nutrient enriched organic fertilizer containing 23.75% organic matter, 4 % total N, 3.8 % P, 5.9 %K, 9% Ca, 0.37% Mg, 1.7 % S, 1.5 % Zn, 0.1% B, 0.15% Mn and 0.01%Cu. The study was conducted at BRRI farm Gazipur (AEZ 28; Land type- Medium High land) in Boro 2005-06 to evaluate the performance of Chook-Chook with reduced STB chemical fertilizer. Eight treatments viz. T₁ = absolute control, T₂ = STB (NPKS @ 140-20-50-10 kg/ha), T₃ = 175 kg /ha Chook-Chook + 80% STB, T₄ = 225 kg /ha Chook-Chook + 80 % STB, T₅ = 225 kg /ha Chook-Chook + 60 % STB, T₆ = 275 kg /ha Chook-Chook + 80 % STB, T₇= 225 kg /ha Chook-Chook + 60% STB and T₈ = 225 kg /ha Chook-Chook + 117-12-30 kg NPK/ha (producer recommendation) were tested in RCB design with 3 replications. BRRI dhan29 was used as test crop in Boro season. Application of Chook-Chook @ 225 kg/ha + 117-12-30 kg NPK/ha produced the highest number of tiller and panicle and it is economically sound. Chook-Chook recommended dose increased 0.54 and 0.81 t/ha crop yield in Gazipur farm and farmers field, respectively. It may concluded that Chook-Chook 111@225 kg/ha + 117-12-30 kg NPK /ha is more effective than STB dose alone for Boro rice cultivation at Gazipur area.

Commodity: Manures

Objectives:

To evaluate the performance of Chook-Chook 111 organic fertilizer with STB chemical fertilizer

Methodology:

The study was conducted at BRRI farm Gazipur (AEZ 28; Land type- Medium High land) in Boro, 2005-06 with eight treatments viz. T₁ = absolute control, T₂ = STB (NPKS @ 140-20-50-10 kg/ha), T₃ = 175 kg /ha Chook-Chook + 80% STB, T₄ = 225 kg /ha Chook-Chook + 80 % STB, T₅ = 225 kg /ha Chook-Chook + 60 % STB, T₆ = 275 kg /ha Chook-Chook + 80 % STB, T₇= 225 kg /ha Chook-Chook + 60% STB and T₈ = 225 kg /ha Chook-Chook + 117-12-30 kg NPK/ha (producer recommendation). The experiment was laid out in RCB design with 3 replications having unit plot size of 6m x 3.4 m. BRRI dhan29 was used as test crop. Chook-Chook was a nutrient enriched organic fertilizer containing 23.75% organic matter, 4 % total N, 3.8 % P, 5.9 %K, 9% Ca, 0.37% Mg, 1.7 % S, 1.5 % Zn, 0.1% B, 0.15% Mn and 0.01%Cu. Chook-Chook, TSP, MP, Zinc sulphate and Gypsum were applied at final land preparation. Urea was applied in three splits as 34% at basal, 33% at 25 DAT and rest 33% at 5-7 days before PI stage. At maturity the crop was harvested manually from 5 m² area at 15 cm above ground. However, 16 hills from each plot were harvested at ground level for straw yield data. Grain yield was recorded at 14% moisture content and straw yield as oven dry basis.
