Abstract
A field experiment was conducted to study the rice growth and X utilization wider saline conditions. Thirty-day old rice seedlings were transplanted in a dense saline sotlic soil. Two X level (100, 200 kg ha') were applied at four different times. Yield and yield components were increased significantly by increasing rate of X. As regards the time of X application, the maximum yield was obtained with 3 split application (■' , X after 10, 20, 40 days of transplanting). Total X uptake and X losses both increased with increasing X level while efficiency of X fertilizer decreased at higher level ofX applied. The significance of rate and time o/X application in relation to rice growth and X utilization on dense saline sodic soils is discussed.
