Abstract/ Executive Summary:

In Boro season, all fertilizers (–P) + poultry manure applied plot gave 25% higher grain yield than the all fertilizers (–P) applied plot which was 7% lower than the all fertilizers applied plot in Boro season. On the other hand, in T.Aman season, all fertilizers (–P) + poultry manure applied plot gave 8% higher grain yield than the all fertilizers (–P) applied plot which was 6% lower than the all fertilizer applied plot.

Keywords: Alternative source, Phosphorus fertilizer, Poultry manure, Rice

Location: Kapasia, Gazipur

Start Date: 01-07-2010

End Date: 30-07-2011

Program Area: Crop-Soil-Water Management

Commodity: Manures

Objectives:

To demonstrate poultry manure as a source of phosphorus for rice

Methodology:

Demonstration trial for poultry manure as alternative source of phosphorus fertilizer was carried out at BRRI technology site, Kapasia, Gazipur during Boro season 2009-10 and T.Aman season 2010. BRRI dhan29 during Boro 2009-10 and BRRI dhan46 during T.Aman were used in this study. Six dispersed farmers field were used to conduct this experiment. The treatments were i) All fertilizers, ii) All fertilizers (–P) and iii) All fertilizers (–P) + poultry manure.

Achievement/Findings:

Poultry manure contains 29% phosphorus (P) which can be alternative source of phosphorus fertilizer. Poultry manure is also good source of organic fertilizer. In 2008, price of phosphorus fertilizer was so high for which demonstration of poultry manure as alternate source of phosphorus fertilizer. In Boro season, all fertilizers (–P) + poultry manure applied plot gave 25% higher grain yield than the all fertilizers (–P) applied plot which was 7% lower than the all fertilizers applied plot in Boro season. On the other hand, in T.Aman season, all fertilizers (–P) + poultry manure applied plot gave 8% higher grain yield than the all fertilizers (–P) applied plot which was 6% lower than the all fertilizer applied plot.
