The objective of this experiment was to study the effectivenes of rock phosphate (rp) in flooded peat soil on the growth, yield and uptake of the N, P, K by rice plants. The experiment was carried out in a greenhouse. Treatment was arranged factorially (2 X 4) in a completely randomized design with six replications. The first factor was the source of P, i.e. RP and TSP. The second factor was the doses of P application, i.e. 0, 45, 90 and 135 kg P2O5 ha at the power of - 1. The result indicated that application of P from TSP increased the percentage of unfilled grain quadratically, but the effect of RP was not significant. The application of P from TSP or RP increased the 1000 grain weight linearly. Tiller and panicle number per hill were affected by P sources, but not by the doses of P. Their responses to RP of 90 P2O5 ha at the power of - 1 were higher than that of TSP. Other growth component and production were not affected by P application. The application of P increased N and P of straw quadratically, N and K of grain uptake linearly, and increased the P availability quadratically after harvest
