A field study using Basmati-385 rice (Oryza sativa L.) during1'_flnd 1995 seasons evaluated the effect of variable rates of N application on paddy yield, components of yie . 'economics of a transplanted and directseeded crop. Transplanted rice significantly increased paddy yield t 15.3% than the direct-seeded rice. Further, this response was markedly higher at 100 kg N/ha. In addl return above variable cost in the transplanted rice increased by 17.75 % over direct-seeded rice. The r suggest that under Faisalabad conditions higher paddy yield and greater economic benefits will be reanz " m the transplanted rice when N @ 100 kg ha' is given.·;;,y
