EFFECT OF FERTILITY LEVELS, SPACINGS AND WEED CONTROL MEASURES ON UPLAND DIRECT SEEDED RICE GROWTH, YIELD ATTRIBUTES AND YIELD

Abstract

                                Studies carried outat the Banaras Hindu University, Varanashi in kharif season of 1988 and 1989 to determine the most effective method of weed control in direct seeded upland rice revealed that higher fertility levels (N100 P50 K 50) and norrower spacing (20cm. uniform row) produced more dry matter and increased grain and straw yield of rice crop. Among weed control treatments, hand weeding twice was most effective in-augmenting-growth and yield of rice crop. Among weed control treatments, hand weeding twice was most effective in augmenting growth and yield of rice crop followed by butacholor at the rate of 2.5 Kg. a.i./ha. + one hand weeding (21 DAS)
