    Investigations on the competing ability of rice with weeds in the rainfed uplands
    (Kerala Agricultural University, 1975) Nair, K R; Pillai, G R; Pisharody, P N; Gopalakrishnan, R
    An investigation was conducted at the Rice Research Station Paltambi during the early kharif seasons of 1972 and 1973 to find out the period of weed competiiion that an upland rice crop could stand without adverse effect on yield, The results revealed that the weed competition was more critical during the early vegetative phase of the crop and that weed free conditions favoured higher grain production. The longest period of weed competition that the upland rice could tolerate was 30 days from sowing without adverse effect on, yield.
