Abstract: 

A study was conducted during the rainy (kharif) season to know the effect of different source of nitrogen on growth and yield of rice cv. GR 11, under North Konkan coastal zone of Maharashtra. Different fertilizers were used as source of nitrogen with or without coating. Four different treatments viz., urea coated with Makeup, neem coated urea, DAP and urea (non-coated) as control were evaluated in four replication in randomize block design. Results showed that growth attributes like maximum plant height, root length, panicle length, highest no. of tillers/plant and yield attributes like maximum no. of grains/panicle/plant, 1000-grains weight and highest grain (3.96 t/ha) and straw yield (4.57 t/ha) were recorded with application of urea coated with makeup @ 140 ml/50 kg .
