Influence of different establishment methods, varieties and N levels on growth and yield of late sown rice in Telangana state

Results of the experiment revealed that, higher growth parameters and yield were observed in direct seeding by drum seeder over direct seeding by broadcasting and the least were observed in conventional transplanting under late sown conditions. Application of 100 % recommended nitrogen i.e., (120 kg ha-1 ) for both varieties (RNR-15048 and JGL-18047) was found to be optimum even under late sown conditions.
