A field study was conducted in Kharif seasons of 1996 and 1997 to see the effect of different levels of nitrogen and methods of its application on kernel dimensions of fine rice, Basmati-385. In 1996, more kernel length was recorded with nitrogen application using point placement method compared with broadcast method. Nitrogen used @ 80 kg ha-1 resulted in longer kernels than rest of the nitrogen levels in both the years of study. Maximum kernel width was noted again with 80 kg N ha-1 in 1996 as well as 1997. Higher length-width ratio was observed in control followed by nitrogen levels 80 and 120 kg ha-1, both being statistically equal.
