A field experiment was conducted at Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru College of Agriculture and Research Institute, Karaikal in order to study the Effect of Organic Manure on Growth and Yield of Transplanted Rice (Oryza sativa L.) under Coastal Cauvery Deltaic Region. The present study was made to evaluate the extent of contribution of added organics viz. green manures (Daincha, Sunhemp) and green leaf manures (Pungam and Glyricidia) with different levels of vermicompost (0, 1, 2 t ha-1) and their effect on transplanted rice growth and yield parameters. The application of green manure, Daincha significantly produced taller plants and higher LAI at all the growth stages, while on contrary, the GM/ GLM and vermicompost did not favor the number of tillers per m-2 and DMP conspicuously. Organic manure treatments significantly enhanced the number of productive tillers, No. of grains panicle-1, spikelet fertility and panicle weight when compared to the control. At the same time, better performance of vermicompost @ 1 or 2 t ha-1 in increasing the number of spikelets panicle-1 and filled grains panicle-1 had been observed. Among the GM/ GLM, the application of Daincha edged over the other GM/GLM treatments and produced significantly higher grain yield.
