Abstract
The trial was conducted at the National Cereals Research Institute Lowland Experimental field during the rainy seasons of 2019 and 2020 to determine the effects of the different sources of organic fertilizer application on lowland rice to. The results indicated different organic fertilizer sources has significant affected rice growth, rice straw and grain yield. The Poultry manure application recorded higher rice straw and grain yield. Therefore, the adoption of poultry manure application is recommended for the resources poor farmers to save cost of rice production.
