Abstract | ||||
A field experiment was conducted at Rice Research and Training Center farm Kafr El-Sheikh during summer season 2007 to study the influence of farmyard manure (FYM) with different rates of urea and their combinations on both rice yield and its attributes of ٍٍGiza178 rice variety and soil organic matter. The obtained data showed that the increase in yield was a maximum with 9 tons FYM plus 150 kg urea.fed-1, while the minimum was with the control. The combination of urea plus FYM gave higher yield than either urea or FYM alone. Data showed significant increase in number of panicles hill-1 as fertilizer level increase from 0 kg N to 9 ton FYM plus 150 kg urea.fed-1. Results showed that, there were insignificant differences in panicle length among all treatments except the control. Data showed also that there was an increase in organic matter in all treatments which treated with FYM compared to the other treatments. | ||||
