The response to foliar versus soil application of nitrogenous and phosphatic ferti- lizers was studied in Co. 29 paddy. Three levels of nitrogen and three levels of phos- phorus namely 0, 17, 34 kg/ha were tried under (i) soil (ii) foliar, (iii) partly as soil and partly as foliar applications individually and, in combination with each other. Foliar spray application was not superior to the soil application. A dose of 34 kg nitrogen and 17 kg of P:0:/ha gave the maximum response when applied through foliage or through soil.
