A field experiment entitled “Response of Direct Sown Rice to Zinc and Iron Nutrition” was conducted at Agriculture College Farm, Bapatla, during kharif, 2017. The experiment was laid out in randomized block design (RBD) with seven treatments replicated thrice. The results revealed that, The nutrient content (N, P, K, Mn and Cu) of direct sown rice at tillering, panicle initiation and harvest was not significantly influenced by the treatments and zinc and iron contents were significantly influenced by the treatment that received RDF + ZnSO4 @ 50 kg ha-1 + FeSO4 @ 25 kg ha-1 through soil application. Lower values of all the nutrients were recorded with RDF. Uptake of nutrients at tillering, panicle initiation and at harvest was markedly influenced by the treatment that receive RDF + ZnSO4 @ 50 kg ha-1+ FeSO4 @ 25 kg ha-1 through soil application. While, lower values were recorded with RDF.
