Abstract | ||||
Tow field experiments on rice crop (Oryza sativa, L.) were conducted during two summer growing seasons, 2016 and 2017 at the Experimental Farm of Rice Research and Training Center (RRTC); Sakha, Kafr El-Sheikh Egypt in cooperation with Rice Training and Technology Center (RTTC),Alexandria, Egypt to study grain quality traits of some Egyptian rice cultivars grown under low fertilizer levels . The results revealed that increasing nitrogen fertilization caused significant increase in the mean values of the most studied characters. In connection, decreasing such fertilizer levels to 50% of the recommended rates did not affect the mean values of some tested cultivars of most studied characters. | ||||
