e0“Herbicide treatments, consequent to termination of rice stubble and weed competition, promoted plant growth, dry matter production, nutrient uptake, yield structure and yield of maize and consequently productivity and economics of the system as compared to no-herbicide treatment.”

- Association Early harvested rice varieties had more rice stubble rejuvenation than late harvested varieties.
- Association Weed growth was lower after early harvested than late harvested rice varieties.
- Intervention effect Pre-emergence paraquat controlled rice stubble rejuvenation better than atrazine or no herbicide.
- Intervention effect Pre-emergence atrazine controlled the first weed flush better than paraquat or no herbicide.
- Intervention effect Herbicide treatments promoted maize nutrient uptake relative to no herbicide.
- Intervention effect Herbicide treatments promoted maize yield structure and yield relative to no herbicide.
- Intervention effect Herbicide treatments improved system productivity and economics relative to no herbicide.
- Intervention effect Rice–zero till maize had higher rice equivalent yield than rice–pulse sequence.
- Intervention effect Rice–zero till maize had higher net returns and benefit of cost than rice–pulse sequence.
- Observation Rice–maize soil fertility and microbial status did not match the rice–pulse system.
- Intervention effect Herbicide treatments showed no detrimental effect on microbial population.
