Abstract

A field experiment was conducted during 2011–12 and 2012–13 on sandy loam soil at Uttar Chandamari village (22°57 ’N, 88° 20 ’E), Kalyani, District Nadia, West Bengal, to study the effect of seaweed (Kappaphycus and Gracilaria) saps on crop growth, yield and nutrient uptake and monetary advantages in rice (Oryza sativa L.)-potato (Solanum tubersoum L.)-blackgram [Vigna mungo (L.) Hepper] sequence. Pooled results indicated that foliar application of seaweed extracts at different concentrations (2.5, 5.0, 10.0 and 15.0% V/V) significantly enhanced the growth, yield and nutrient uptake of all the crops. Application of 15% Kappaphycus sap with 75% recommended dose of fertilizer (RDF) resulted in the highest productivity in terms of rice-equivalent yield (REY) with annual net monetary returns of 231, 686/ha and benefit: cost ratio of 2.61. The highest N, P, K uptake in all the crops was also observed in the same combination.

8 of 19 groups shown: named compounds and organisms first, then groups whose results differ (checked claim by claim), then those with positive and negative results, then the smaller groups.

Claims are grouped by organism, treatment and what was measured or targeted. A paper counts as positive when any of its claims in the group is positive.
