Abstract: An experiment was conducted during kharif 2015 at Agricultural Research Farm, Institute of Agricultural Sciences, Banaras Hindu University, Varanasi to study the performance of aromatic varieties and age of seedlings on yield and nutrient uptake of rice under irrigated ecosystem. Results revealed that, aromatic rice variety Adamchini and Badshahbhog recorded maximum grain and straw yield, respectively. Whereas, age of 14 days seedlings recorded maximum grain as well as straw yield which was statistically at par with age of 18 days seedlings. The nitrogen and phosphorous concentrations was recorded maximum with variety Kalanamak and the potassium content was found to be non-significant. Highest uptake of NPK by grains was recorded with variety Adamchini but the straw of variety Badshahbhog recorded maximum uptake of NPK. The nutrient concentration and uptake was found to be non-significant with age of seedlings.
