Reducing the harmful chemical use along with obtaining potential yield in field is a worth exploring practice in rice cultivation. To mitigate the prevailing yield gap, the current study was designed to evaluate the effect of chitosan in improving growth, yield contributing characters and yield of rice. The experiment comprised eight different treatments control (no fertilizer and Chitosan) (T), conventional method (with fertilizers) (T), conventional method with foliar spray of 100 ppm chitosan solution (T), conventional method with foliar spray of 300 ppm chitosan solution (T), conventional method with foliar spray of 500 ppm chitosan solution (T), only foliar spray of 100 ppm chitosan solution (T), only foliar spray of 300 ppm chitosan solution (T), and only foliar spray of 500 ppm chitosan solution (T).
