Abstract

Nitrogen-use efficiency in w e t l ~ drice ( O w safiva L.) was studied in a field experiment conducted during 1986 and 1987 at Pusa. The highest yield w c obtained with 100 kg Nha (40 kg N basal + 30 kg N at maxqum tillering + 30 kg Nha at panicle-initiation stage). However, it was simila to 80 kg Nha when a fraci~n of it was applied basal. ?he N uptake, apparent recovery and its efficiency were also highest under 129 kg Nha. Similar trend was recorded for the other ancillary characters and yield attributes.
