Reducing the Environmental Impact of Rice Cultivation by Site-Specific Nutrients Management and using Chicken Manure in Combination with Chemical Fertilizers
Keywords:
Rice, Site - specific nutrients management, Chicken manureAbstract
The cultivation of rice caused the water and soil environmental impact due to using large amount of chemical fertilizers. This research aimeds to use site-specific nutrients management, soil physical and chemical properties for the rice cultivation in Ban Khoi Subdistrict, Muang District, Lopburi Province by Fertilizer Usage Calculator by Soil Analysis (FCS). The soil analysis results revealed that the value of Total Nitrogen and Available Phosphorus (P) were low and Available Potassium (K) was moderate. After that, calculating with application FCS revealed that the fertilizer formula was 6 - 5 - 3 (Urea (46 - 0 - 0), DAP (18 - 46 - 0) and MOP (0 - 0 - 60)) and the fertilizer ratio was 3, 11 and 5 kg/rai at the 1st fertilizer addition and the 2nd fertilizer addition was urea 7 kg/rai. Addition, the variable chicken manure was used as alternative chemical fertilizer in treatments. The results showed that 75% tailor-made fertilizer with 25% chicken manure gave the highest productivity at 520.30 kg/rai. This study shown that it was able to reduce fertilizer usage at 20.50 kg/rai when compared to the rice conventional irrigation and also reduce environmental impact.
