An experiment to study the effect of graded levels of nitrogen on lemongrass varieties revealed that OD 19 and SD 68 were on par and significantly superior to RRL 16 in grass production and oil yield. Levels of 100 kg N and 50 kg were on par and superior to control in oil yield but 50 kg N/ha was on par with 100 kg N/ha and control in the case of grass yield. Oil content was maximum at higher nitrogen levels compared to control in most of the harvests
