Field experiment for growth, yield and quality of scented rice, variety Pusa Basmati 1 was carried out at Instructional farm, Acharya Narendra Deva University of Agriculture and Technology, Kumarganj, Ayodhya during kharif season 2018.The treatment were included inorganic and organic combination viz. T1 (100:40:30 kg ha-1 N2, P2O5, K2O) kg ha-1 ,T2 (75% NPK + 25% N through vermicompost),T3 (75% NPK + 25% N through FYM), T4(50% NPK+25%N through vermicompost FYM), T5 (50% NPK + 50% N through FYM), T6 (50%NPK + 50% N through vermicompost), T7 (125% NPK (RDF) T8 (100% NPK + 25% N through FYM) T9 (100% NPK + 25% vermicompost). The treatment were replicated thrice in Randomized Block Design. The experimental soil was silty loam in texture having pH 8.20, EC 0.31, OC 0.24, available N:137.18, P2O5: 14.80, and K2O:255.20 kg ha-1.The crop was transplanted in second week of July and harvesting in second week of Nov.2018. the maximum available nitrogen (165kg ha-1) , phosphorus (16.00 kgha-1) and potash (300.60 kg ha-1) was recorded in the treatment T9 (100% NPK + 25% N through vermicompost) which was significantly superior over rest of the treatments and minimum available nitrogen (135.00 kg ha-1), phosphorus (12.35 kg ha-1) and potassium (205 kg ha-1) was recorded in treatment T5 (50% NPK + 50% N through FYM). The maximum organic carbon contend (0.45%) was noted in T5 (50% NPK + 50% N through FYM) and PH, EC was fined non significant.
