Different ways of planting rice and using nitrogen fertilizer were tested in eastern Uttar Pradesh. The study found that using a plant spacing of 20cm x 10cm and applying 180 kg of nitrogen per hectare resulted in the highest grain and straw yields. Increasing nitrogen levels from 0 to 180 kg/ha led to better growth characteristics like plant height, tiller number, leaf area, and dry matter accumulation. In both years, the combination of 20 cm × 10 cm plant spacing and 180 kg N/ha gave the best results in terms of yield.
