Research Background
Currently the farmers are using 100 present of the soil from the field and raise the seedlings
which are not healthy during uprooting the paddy seedlings and takes longer time for them to
get transplanted in the main field. Improving the rice production through innovative rice
seedlings. The farmers in the rice production area across India are very much dejected over the
condition of agriculture because of the issues like poor rainfall and labour avaibility.
So we have developed a new media of 40 % of coconut coir, 40% of ground nut powder and
20% of onion peels extract.
Objectives
Objectives of our project carried out of the following:-
1. We have to reuse the wastes of onion peels, coconut coir and Ground nut powder.
2. We have to grow the paddy seedlings in the medium of Ground nut powder, onion peels
and coconut coir.
3. We have to compare the growth rate of paddy seedlings in different proportions of
Ground nut powder and onion peels.
4. We have to observe the wastes conditions of coconut coir, onion peels and Ground nut
powder.
Methodology
Materials required:-
1.Trays(27cm×. 22 cm×5 cm) -6
2. Coco-Peat- 1 kg
3. Onion peels extract:- 2 liters
4:- Water:- 18 liters
5. Groundnut powder:- 1 kg 200 g
Method:-
Firstly we have taken six rectangular trays of same size( 27cm×. 22 cm×5 cm) .Out of these trays,
we have taken only Coco-Peat and made control of the first tray then we have taken Groundnut
shell powder and Coco-peat in second tray, Coco-peat and onion peels extract in third tray,
mixture of Coco-Peat and onion extract (1:1) on the bed of coco-peat in fourth tray, onion
peels extract and Ground nut powder(1:2) on Coco-Peat bed in fifth tray and Ground nut
powder and onion peels extract (2:1) on Coco-Peat bed in sixth tray.After that we have 20
grams of seeds in each tray and we have been observing, condition of seed germination, plant
conditions, soil parameters like pH, presence of air, presence of moisture and carbon contents
in the soil 3 weeks
So methodology of performing different experiments for testing of components of the all trays
follows:-
Firstly we have taken 10 g of sample randomly to each pot and made as sample A, B, C, D, E and
F oasf 1st,2nd, 3rd,4th,5th and 6th tray simultaneously. After that We have tested pH,
Presence of moisture, Present of air and organic contents.
After the study with grown paddy seedlings in different trays, we have also grown paddy
seedlings in the soil medium in the tray. We have transferred all the paddy seeds of both types
of media( soil as well as Coco-Peat) in soil culture and have been observing rate of growth
continuously 2 weeks. After 2 weeks we have observed that roots condition of the paddy
seedlings. So we have found that about 65% present of roots had destroyed but the media of
Coco peat conserve roots and roots hair of the paddy seedlings during transfer.
Conclusion
On the basis of performing experiments and survey we have concluded as following:-
1. Mixture of Groundnut powder, Coco-Peat and onion peels extract save 100% of roots during
uprooting.
2.. About 2/3 rd part of roots are destroyed during uprooting from the soil.
