Abstract
A field experiment was conducted to study the “Effect of sowing dates and different crop establishment methods on yield, nutrient uptake and economics of rice (Oryza sativa L.) During Kharif, 2017 at Rice research Centre, Agricultural Research Institute, Rajendranagar, Hyderabad (TS), India. The experiment was laid out in split plot design with four replications, comprises two main plot treatments i.e., sowing dates M1- Normal sowing: First fortnight of July, M2- Delayed sowing: 20 days after normal sowing, three subplot treatments i.e., S1- Machine transplanting, S2- Manual transplanting in lines, S3- Manual transplanting at random. The results revealed that normal (optimum) sowing i.e., first fort night of July with machine transplanting proved to be better for obtaining maximum grain yield and net returns.
