The application of farmyard manure (FYM) in conjunction with inorganic fertilizers significantly increased yield attributes and yield of rice. Application of FYM improved available nutrients, porosity, organic carbon, cation exchange capacity (CEC), and aggregation of soil and reduced bulk density. Inorganic fertilizers in conjunction with FYM improved quality parameters of rice. Grain yield of direct seeded rice with brown manuring Sesbania was statistically at par with conventional transplanting of rice. Rice grain yield increased with increase in dose of nitrogen to a certain level and after that increase in nitrogen level was uneconomical. Maximum nutrients uptake recorded with higher level of nitrogen. Direct seeded rice gave higher water-use efficiency, maintained good physical conditions and provided chance for timely sowing of succeeding wheat crop. Similar quality parameters of rice (hulled, milled and head rice recovery) were recorded with different establishment methods.
