Panel ARDL, that rainfall, electricity Using the study found consumption, and area under irrigation for rice had a positive relationship with rice productivity in the long run. In contrast, the area under rice cultivation and fertilizer consumption had a negative impact on rice productivity, whereas, in the short run, all variables had no significant effect on rice yield except the area under rice cultivation, which positively affected rice yield. On the basis of the findings, the study recommended using organic and nano manure, land management, crop rotations, paddy cultivation through training and extension services, timely irrigation, efficient fertilizers usage, and integrated pest management.
