Abstract


Field experiments were conducted at Agricultural College and Research Institute. Madurai. to study the effect of time of sowing along with weed management practices in semidry rice. The treatments included sowing practices such as pre monsoon sowing (one week ahead), pre monsoon sowing (two weeks ahead), sowing immediately after onset of monsoon, in mainplots and herbicide such as pendimethalin, pretilachlor, pretilachlor + safener, in sub plots. No significant difference was noticed among various sowing practices in the main plot. Among the herbicides. pendimethalin recorded the highest grain yield and was on par with pretilachlor + safener at 8 DAR.
