Abstract: In order to study the effect of Azomite on growth and yield of ‘Hanyou8’, a water-saving and drought-resistant rice, was used as the sample, the experiment was carried under three N rates including 160 kg/hm2 (LN), 200 kg/hm2 (NN) and 240 kg/hm2 (HN). No Azomite fertilizer as a control, the experiment was carried under water-saving cultivation mode. The results show that: in the three N rates, Azomite could increase plants flag leaf chlorophyll content, plant height, panicle number, spike length, grain yield of ‘Hanyou8’, in LN and NN, the actual yield was increased 6.41% and 11.1% respectively in significantly. In the soil, Azomite has no effect on soil pH. The total N and available P reduced in three N rates. Soil organic matter, available P was increased in LN and NN treatments; available N was increased in NN and HN treatments.
