With flue-cured tobacco variety G80 as material, the coupling effects of nitrogen application rate and planting density on agronomic and economic characters of flue-cured tobacco in Liuyang tobacco area was studied. The results showed that the whole growth duration of flue-cured tobacco was prolonged 5-7days by increment of N rate and shortened 3-4 days by increment of density, that was to say, the whole growth duration in low N and high density treatment was the shortest. The agronomic characters of flue-cured tobacco were improved due to the increase of nitrogen application rate and the decr...
