Abstract
Field trials conducted in the farmers' fields at eight different farming situations for four
seasons proved that large granule urea (LGU) is an economic and efficient source of N for low land
rice, especially in areas with heavy rnonsoonic rains . LGU having no extra cost either in
production or application over the ordinary prilled urea (PU) offers greater potential for efficient
N nutrition in rice. The results also reveal that the entire quantity of LGU can be broadcast as a
single basal dose.
