Abstract


A field experiment was conducted during kharif 1970 to compare the efficiency between transplanting and direct seeding of IR. 8 rice under three levels of nitrogen (125 175 and 225 kg/ha). The findings indicated that direct seeding was better than trans- planting because of early maturity and higher yield. There was response upto the maxi mum dose of nitrogen adopted. The cost of cultivation between methods did not vary significantly
