Abstract: An experiment was conducted during 2007 and 2008 following Randomized Block Design (RBD) with 9 different nutritional treatments each replicated thrice, to evaluate the growth, productivity and economics of growing rice under such management practices. The growth parameters, yield components and seed yield of rice were maximum when organic manure was applied along with inorganic fertilizer at 75% of the recommended dose (RDF). The effect of well decomposed fishmeal (WDFM) was as good as farm yard manure (FYM) vis-a-vis vermicompost and sometimes it showed better result over FYM and vermicompost.
