COMPARATIVE RESPONSE OF DIVERSE RICE VARIETIES TO GREEN MANURING (Sesbania aculeata)
Main Article Content
Abstract
An experiment to evaluate the effect of green manuring (Sesbania aculeata) on the yield of three cultivars (IR-6, KSK-282 and Basmati-370) of rice was conducted at the farm of Faculty of Agriculture, Gomal University Dera Ismail Khan, Pakistan. The green manuring significantly has increased paddy yield of fine variety of rice Basmati -370 while paddy yield of coarse varieties, IRand KSK-282 was nonsignificant over control. Agro-economical analysis of paddy yield data of three rice varieties indicate that green manuring is economical only for fine rice varieties in intensive cropping system of rice-wheat in rice growing areas.
