Revolutionizing rice production: Green manuring boosts yields and soil health.
The study looked at how using a mix of chemical fertilizers, farmyard manure, green manuring, and blue green algae can improve rice growth and yield. By combining these methods, they found that the rice variety Lalat had a 19.3% increase in yield compared to using only chemical fertilizers. They also saw an increase in nutrient uptake and improvements in soil quality. This approach resulted in higher profits for farmers.
