A field experiment was conducted at Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel University of Agriculture & Technology, Meerut (U.P.), during the Kharif season 2019 to study the effect of planting techniques with organic and inorganic nutrient management on growth, yield attributes and yield of rice (Oryza sativa L.) under rice-wheat cropping system. The treatment comprised of four planting techniques as main treatments and six fertility levels as subplot treatments in split plot design with three replications. The results indicated that conventional tillage-transplanted rice (CT-TPR) (M2) recorded significantly highest growth characters (except plant height), yield attributes and yield over furrow irrigated raised beds (FIRB) (M3) and reduced tillage-transplanted rice (RT-TPR) (M1), which remained at par with unpuddled-transplanted rice (UP-TPR) (M4) respectively. The plant height was maximum in furrow irrigated raised beds (FIRB). Among fertility levels treatments, the application of 100% NPK + 25% N (FYM) (S6) found higher growth, yield attributes, and yield than rest of the other fertility treatments. Thus, the results suggest that inclusion of inorganic fertilizer along with organic manure (FYM) enhanced the rice yield. Therefore, application of M2 (CT-TPR) along with S5 (75% NPK + 25% N (FYM)) found beneficial to increase growth and productivity of rice crop.
