The recent shift from transplanted to wet seeded rice (Oryza sativa L.) in South East Asia has resulted in major weed problems which require more labour and energy for their control. Field experiments were conducted during 1994±1996 on a Chromic Vertisol in central Luzon, the Philippines, to study the effect of water, tillage and herbicide levels on total water use, weed growth and yield of wet...

Direct drum seeding has emerged as a viable and alternate substitute to the current transplanted rice address constraints of labor water scarcity well rising cultivation costs. However, heavy weed infestation is main biological factor leading immense yield loss, which requires immediate attention. Therefore, adoption efficient management practice critical for success widespread direct seeded ri...
