Field experiments were conducted during the rice seasons for two consecutive years (2070 and 2071) in ARS, Belachapi to evaluate the optimal level of nutrient for better and sustainable rice grain production under Rice-Tomato cropping system. Randomized Complete Block Design (RCBD) was used with twelve treatments of four N levels (0, 80, 120 and160 kg ha-1) and three level of P (0, 40 and 80 kg ha-1). The plot size was 12 sq. m. and rice variety Hardinath-1 was for the study. The highest rice grain yield (4854 kg ha-1),  plant  height  (108.23  cm)  was  recorded  in 160:80:40:  N:  P2O5:  K2O  kg  ha-1. Statistically, both grain and straw yield were significantly higher as compared to other treatments………………………
