Chemical fertilizers application is costly and gradually leads to environmental problems. Cheap and environmentally saved organic manure application might be essential for sustainable soil fertility and rice production. By conducting trials in pots and fields, animal manures such as poultry manure showed its superiority on crop yield, nutrient availability and soil fertility sustainability. It can be used as an environmentally and economically suitable fertilizer in paddy production especially in developing countries with little capability of investments. Sustainable crop production should maintain the optimal condition, avoiding high external application and high crop removal, and is sound for human...
