Biochemical Properties of Medicinal Rice Njavara (Oryza Sativa L.) as Influenced by Different Management Systems

S. Rani, P. Sukumari

Abstract :

Studies were initiated for two consecutive years to find out the effect of nutrients sources under different management systems on biochemical properties of medicinal rice Njavara grain at Cropping Systems Research Centre, Karamana, Thiruvananthapuram, Kerala. The experiment was laid out in split plot design with four replications. The treatments consisted of four management systems viz., System of Rice Intensification SRI (M1), Integrated Crop Establishment Method (ICM) (M2), Package of practices (PoP) (M3) of KAU (Kerala Agricultural University) and Farmers’ practice (M4) in main plots. Nutrient sources viz., organic sources (S1), integrated nutrient sources (S2) and inorganic sources (S3) were the sub plot treatments
