To study the fertilizers and humic acid on nutrient uptake in Alfisol and Inceptisol, two field experiments were conducted during rabi 2001 with various levels of fertilizers and humic acid treatments. A large increase was recorded in the uptake of nutrients for the application of humic acid (HA) upto 40 kg ha'. The significant increase of N, P and K uptake were recorded upto 20 and 10 kg HA ha respectively in both Alfisol and Inceptisol. In the presence of humic acid, the effect of 75 and 100% NPK fertilizers on nutrient uptake and grain yield was comparable with each other.
Keywords: Rice, Humic acid, Nutrient uptake, Alfisol, Inceptisol.
