A field experiment was carried out during kharif, 2018 at the research farm of the ICAR, Indian Institute of Rice Research (IIRR), Hyderabad, Telangana state. The soil of the experimental field was clay loam in texture, low in available nitrogen, medium in phosphorus and high in potassium content. The experiment was laid out in randomized block design with eleven treatments and each one replicated thrice. Highest net returns Rs 92,658 ha-1 was recorded with the application of 100% RDN through neem coated urea. This was closely followed by 100% RDN through neem coated urea + nitrification inhibitor Rs 83,467 ha-1. Highest gross returns Rs 1,26,295 ha-1 was recorded with the application of 100% RDN through neem coated urea . This was closely followed by 100% RDN through neem coated urea + nitrification inhibitor Rs 1,17,151 ha-1. Highest B : C ratio () was recorded with the application of 100% RDN through neem coated urea . Lowest B:C ratio () was recorded with application of 100% RDN through vermicompost . | Transplanted rice as influenced by different enriched nitrogen sources - An economic appraisal
