The present study was undertaken with a view to study the effect of different level of irrigation on biometric parameters of rice crop such as growth, yield and yield attributes and water use efficiency under surface and subsurface drip irrigation. The results shows that the biometric parameters such as plant height, number of tillers per plant, plant dry matter and LAI for rice crop were found maximum in the treatments T3 (subsurface drip) and T8 (conventional irrigation). Water supply to the crops was significantly higher in the treatment T8 as compared to other treatments. The crop yield was found to be maximum in treatments T8 followed by T7 and T3. Whereas, the water use efficiency for treatments under drip irrigation was significantly superior to the treatments under conventional irrigation.
