This study investigates the impact of different tillage practices, namely Conventional Tillage (CT) (T1), Minimum Tillage with residue retention (MT) (T2) and Zero Tillage (ZT) (T3) and nitrogen fertilizer schedules 100% RDN (N1) (120 kg ha-1), 100% RDN + foliar spray of nano urea 2.5 ml l-1 at active tillering and panicle initiation stage (N2), 100% RDN + foliar spray of nano DAP 2.5 ml l-1 at active tillering and panicle initiation stage (N3), 75% RDN + Nano urea 2.5 ml l-1 at active tillering and panicle initiation stage (N4), 75 % RDN + Nano DAP 2.5 ml l-1 at active tillering and panicle initiation stage (N5) on soil temperature, moisture and their interaction in aerobic rice cultivation. Soil temperature was measured using digital thermometer and soil moisture was determined by Owen drying method. Results revealed that soil temperature and soil moisture was significantly influenced by tillage practices and Nitrogen fertilizer schedules showed no significant effect on soil temperature and soil moisture. Zero tillage (T3) consistently recording the lowest soil temperatures compared to T1 and T2 in both years. During rabi 2022-2023, T3 recorded 18.23°C in the 1st week, significantly lower than T1 (19.32°C). This trend persisted in the rabi 2023-2024, with T3 recording 27.1°C in the 19th week, significantly lower than T1 (28.61°C). In terms of soil moisture, zero tillage (T3) also consistently resulted in the highest moisture levels. During rabi 2022-2023 season, T3 recorded 18.93% soil moisture in the 1st week, significantly higher than T1 (18.11%). This pattern continued in the rabi 2023-2024, with T3 maintaining significantly higher moisture levels in most weeks. Zero tillage is effective in reducing soil temperature and enhancing soil moisture retention. Minimum tillage with residue retention performing similar to zero tillage.
