Abstract: A field experiment consisting of 6 treatment combinations of two levels of Ni (@ 1 and 2 kg ha^-1) with two nitrogen sources and three replications was conducted under randomized block design at research plot of Udai Pratap (Autonomous) College, Varanasi (U.P.).The main objective of study was to find out the effect of Ni with different sources of nitrogen on growth and yield of rice (Oryza sativa L.).The experiment was laid out in a randomized block design (RBD) having 6 treatments and 3 replications. Treatments were T₀= control, T₁ = nitrogen through ammonium sulphate + Ni@ 1 kg ha^-1, T₂ = nitrogen through ammonium sulphate + Ni @ 2 kg ha^-1, T₃ = nitrogen through urea + Ni @ 1 kg ha^-1, T₄ = nitrogen through urea + Ni @ 2 kg ha^-1 and T₅ = 50% nitrogen through Urea and 50% nitrogen through ammonium sulphate + Ni @ 2 kg ha^-1. The results revealed that the growth, yield, organic carbon and available N, P and K status of soil was significantly increased by application of Ni @ 1 and 2 kg ha^-1 with different nitrogen sources (urea and ammonium sulphate) as compared to control. Similar results were also observed with nutrients (N, P and K) content and uptake by the rice.
