The research aimed to study effect of nitrogen management on productivity of kodo millet (Paspalum scrobiculatum L.). The field experiment was carried out at instructional farm of Barrister Thakur Chhedilal College of Agriculture and Research Station, Bilaspur (Chhattisgarh) during kharif 2023. The experiment was laid out in randomized block design with three replication and consisted of seven treatments. The treatment consists of different levels of RDN along with basal and top dressing of conventional urea and foliar sprays of nano urea. Variety Indira kodo-1 was used for experiment. The results indicated that 75% RDN + 1 spray of nano urea @ 4 ml litre-1 water at tillering stage + 100% PK (T4), recorded higher plant height (117.16 cm), number of tillers m-1 row length (140.41), number of effective tillers m-1 row length (136.80), number of racemes plant-1 (6.80), panicle length (8.94 cm), which was statistically on par with the T3 and T2.
