fertilizer inputs represent the largest part ofthe N cycle. In most Asian countries, irrigatedrice farmers apply 100–150 kg N ha-1 to dryseason rice crops and 60–90 kg N ha-1 to wetseason crops. The cost of N fertilizer usuallyrepresents 10–20% of the total variableproduction co[r]
In the present investigation rice genotype HUR-105 was selected to see the effect of seed priming on yield attributes and grain quality of rice. Priming of seeds has been done with distilled water (hydro), Mg(NO3)2 salt (halo) and kinetin (T3), salicylic acid (hormonal) and different parameters, suc[r]
