Abstract


In a study on optimum time of harvesting of rice (Var. Jagannath), It was found that, the moisture content in grains decreased at the rate of 0.583% per day, reaching 15.93% at harvesting. The crop harvested at 22% grain moisture content gave the maximum yield. The grains attained physiological maturity at 36 days after heading. Thirty three to 39 days after heading is the optimum time of harvesting of rice (Var. Jagannath).
