Abstract
The influence of organic matter vis-a-vis humic acids on availability of nutrient status and its impact on cultivation of rice (Variety MTU 1010) followed by mustard (Variety B-9), were studied in Typic Fluvaquent soil under Old Alluvial zone of West Bengal, India. Important physical and chemical properties of the soil texture sandy clay loam, bulk density 1.34 Mg m-3, oxidizable organic carbon 1.16 g 100 g-1, pH 6.34, total nitrogen 0.14 g 100 g-1, available phosphorus 25.90 kg ha-1, available potash 127.40 kg ha-1, available sulphate 39.56 kg ha-1, respectively. The C:N ratio of the added FYM, Commercial and FYM extracted humic acid were 32.11, 32.61 and 13.53, respectively. Soils received recommended doses of fertilizers for cultivation of paddy (N:P2O5:K2O :: 60:30:30) followed by mustard (N:P2O5:K2O :: 80:40:40) along with FYM at 5.0 and 2.5 t ha-1, Commercial humic acid at 0.5, 0.25 kg ha-1 and FYM extracted humic acid at 0.5 and 0.25 kg ha-1, respectively as per treatment combinations. The experiment was undertaken by following the Randomized Block Design (RBD). Rhizosphere soil (0-15 cm) and plant samples were collected periodically and analysed for C/N ratio, available phosphate, potash and sulphur in soil and total P, K and S in plant with their integral effect on crop growth. At panicle initiation and branching stages of paddy and mustard, highest content of available phosphate, potash and sulphur was recorded and which gradually decrease towards harvesting stage. FYM extracted humic acid resulted highest availability of phosphate, potash and sulphur whereas Commercial humic acid enhanced the content of potash in soil, which signified uptake of phosphorus, potash and sulphur within plants resulted qualitative enrichment through biometric parameters and yield of paddy and mustard.
