Of late, in an effort to attain self sufficiency in rice production in our State there have been various attempts to explore the possibilities of increasing the acre yield by adopting Japanese and other improved methods of rice cultivation. Trials have been conducted in various Research centres in India to assess the exact contribution of some of these methods like planting in lines and giving wider spacing between plants, intercultivation with intercultivators or working weeders between rows of standing crop, heavy application of manures like cattle manure, compost or green leaf and fertilizers like ammonium sulphate and super phosphate. In this paper the results of trials conducted at the Agricultural Research Station, Pattambi, Malabar with special reference to some of these aspects are reviewed.
