One of the main factors limiting crop performance in the tropics is agronomic practices, which include planting techniques and nutrition. Agronomic techniques are necessary to improve the growth, productivity, and quality of Amaranthus cruenthus, a significant leafy vegetable. The purpose of this study was to ascertain how A. cruenthus growth and herbage yield were impacted by transplanting age and urea rates. Between April and August of 2024, the study was carried out at Ibrahim Badamasi Babangida University and Longitude 60 57. The experiment was set up using a Randomized Complete Block Design (RCBD) and was carried out three times. There were four urea rate levels (control, 50 kg, 100 kg, and 150 kg/ha) and three transplanting ages (3, 4, and 5 weeks, respectively). Plant height (cm), leaf count (cm), branch count, stem girth (cm), leaf area (cm2), harvest index, yield per plot (kg), and cumulative yield (tonnes/ha) were all measured. Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) was performed on the gathered data, and LSD P
