Abstract
The experiment was carried out at Raipur during season of 2012, at college of agriculture, Indira Gandhi Krishi Vishwavidyalaya, Raipur to study the effect of combination of organic and inorganic fertilizers on yield, fertility status and uptake pattern of nutrients in scented rice. The treatments receiving both organic and inorganic fertilizers has improved the soil fertility level. Total uptake of nitrogen and phosphorus was recorded in the variety Dubraj. While Badshah Bhog recorded the highest potassium uptake. Whereas among the nutrient management options application of 80:50:40 Kg N: P2O5: K2O ha-1 (50%Inorganic+50% Organic) recorded highest Nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium uptake. In fertility status of soil, the application of 80:40:80 Kg N:P2O5:K2O ha-1 (Organic FYM) recorded highest available nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium after rice harvest. So it helps in enhancing yield, fertility levels and fertilizer use efficiency.
