ABSTRACT
Field experiment was conducted during the kharif seasons of successive years in 2014 at Irrigation Research Station, Sam Higginbottom Institute of Agriculture, Technology and Sciences, Allahabad (India) situated in the southern part of Uttar Pradesh, to find out the response of paddy to varying water level (Cv-SHIATS DHAN 1). Effect of six different water application levels i.e. 25%, 50%, 75%, 100%, 125% and 150% on paddy growth parameter such as plant height, number of tillers, biomass, leaf area, flag width, flag length, number of grains per panicle and yield were studied in this experiment. Results showed that water application level significantly increased but maximum plant height, number of tillers, grains per panicle, biomass, leaf area, flag width, flag length, panicle length and yield was found to be 117.80 cm, 29, 135, 49.166 t/ha, 44.386 cm2, 1.433 cm, 44.733 cm, 29.75cm, 5.29 t/ha respectively.
Key words :
Leaf area, Plant height, Paddy yield and biomass, Rice.
