Other claims from this paper (15)
- Observation Sesbania aculeata had the highest dry matter in 2009, at 5.46 t ha−1.
- Intervention effect Sesbania incorporation significantly increased grain, straw and biological rice yields.
- Intervention effect Sesbania incorporation significantly increased rice Zn content and uptake.
- Intervention effect Sesbania incorporation significantly increased rice economics.
- Observation Rice grain yield with Sesbania incorporation was 4.89 and 5.56 t−1 ha in 2009 and 2010.
- Observation Rice straw yield with Sesbania incorporation was 9.04 and 10.21 t−1 ha in 2009 and 2010.
- Intervention effect EDTA-chelated Zn ranked best for rice yields.
- Intervention effect EDTA-chelated Zn ranked best for rice Zn content and uptake.
- Intervention effect EDTA-chelated Zn ranked best for rice economics.
- Intervention effect EDTA-chelated Zn gave the highest grain yield, 5.15 and 5.76 t ha−1, versus 4.09 and 4.75 in controls.
- Intervention effect EDTA-chelated Zn gave straw yield of 9.30 and 10.48 t ha−1, versus 8.13 and 9.39 in controls.
- Intervention effect Sesbania produced the highest grain and straw Zn concentration and uptake versus other manure crops and fallow.
- Intervention effect Total rice Zn uptake ranked highest with EDTA-chelated Zn, followed by sulfate forms, oxide and control.
- Intervention effect Sesbania and EDTA-chelated Zn formed a better combination for rice productivity.
- Recommendation Adequate zinc fertilization with green manure incorporation can raise basmati rice productivity.
