Abstract

The study examined the energy use pattern of zero budget natural farming (ZBNF) in rice production. Operation wise energy usage in rice production was calculated in this study. From the results, natural fertilizers and manures were found to be the dominant source of energy and the lowest is seed energy in rice production. The energy use efficiency shows 4.83 MJ per ha output energy utilised per 1 MJ ha-1 input energy. The net energy was found to be 54645.75 MJ per hectare rice production in the study.

Energy efficiency zero budget natural farming.
