Results revealed that treatment T4 (100% RDN + 2 foliar spray of nano-DAP @ 3 ml liter-1 of water at tillering and panicle initiation stages) recorded the highest plant height, number of total tillers, dry matter accumulation (g plant-ˡ), effective tillers (388.53 m-2) ear length (12.15 cm), number of grains ear-1 head (28.80), test weight (42.38 g), grain yield (41.50 q ha-1) and straw yield (43.12 q ha-1) which was significantly superior over other treatments but was at par with T2, T3 and T7 treatments.
