Impact of distillery effluent on the growth and development of oryza sativa L.

The present study is to analyse the impact of diluted distillery effluent on the growth  of rice (Oryza sativa L.). Of the different concentrations of the effluent used, 20% dilution was found to be best suited for the plant growth. The results indicate that after proper dilution, distillery effluent can be used effectively as a source of fertilizer irrigant. This also can be considered as an effective effluent disposal option too.
