Aerobic rice is projected as sustainable rice production system for the immediate future. The present field experiment was carried out in split-plot design to study the impact of different sources and doses of nitrogen along with foliar spray of two micronutrients viz. iron and zinc at tillering and panicle emergence on growth and yield attributes of rice maintained under aerobic condition. The results showed that the growth and yield parameters showed positive response with higher dose of nitrogen. Data recorded at flowering and at harvest showed that number of tillers (374 and 264 respectively) and dry weight (379 and 900 gm-2 respectively) was maximum when applied through neem coated urea@ 140 kg N/ha. However, plant height at flowering and harvest was noted highest (115 cm) for prilled urea@140 kg N/ha. Similarly, yield (41.28 q/ha) and N, P and K content were also recorded maximum for neem coated urea@ 140 kg N/ha. For micronutrients, the maximum grain yield (39.34 q/ha) was recorded with S3- Two foliar spray of iron and zinc at tillering and panicle emergence.
