Abstract: A field experiment was conducted during 2014 and 2015 to evaluate the effect of the nanoclay polymer composites and fertility levels on dry matter accumulation of the linseed (Linum usitatissimum L.) under different irrigation frequency. The treatments consisted three irrigation levels (no irrigation, one irrigation and two irrigations) and six fertility levels with NCPC (Control, 50% RDF, 100% RDF, NCPC 100 kg ha-1, NCPC 100 kg ha-1 loaded with 50% RDF and NCPC 100 kg ha-1 loaded with 25% RDF ). However, the interaction effect of irrigation levels and fertility levels with NCPC was observed significant on the dry matter accumulation of linseed crop at all the growth stages. The highest dry matter were recorded at 30 DAS (0.227, 0.207 and 0.217 g plant-1), 60 DAS (5.04, 5.00 and 5.02 g plant-1), 90 DAS (10.72, 9.59 and 10.15 g plant-1), and at harvest (10.91, 9.76 and 10.33 g plant-1) with the application of two irrigations + 100% RDF during both the years and in pooled analysis, respectively. Likewise, higher dry matter accumulation was found at the time of harvesting (80.02, 72.04, 60.62 and 78.48, 69.57, 55.94 per cent) with the application of two irrigations + 100% RDF over control during both the years, respectively. The present study highlighted the practical importance of the nanoclay polymer composites and fertility level on dry matter accumulation of the linseed under different irrigation frequency.
