- Observation The major weeds in the transplanted rice field were Echinochloa colonum, Echinochloa crus-galli, Cyperus rotundus, Cyperus difformis, Fimbristylis miliacea and Ludwigia parviflora.
- Intervention effect Almix + 2,4-DEE applied 8 days after transplanting was the most effective treatment for controlling weeds in transplanted rice.
- Intervention effect Almix + 2,4-DEE applied 8 days after transplanting maximized rice grain yield at 58.3 q/ha.
- Intervention effect The Almix + 2,4-DEE treatment was on a par with three rounds of hand-weeding at 20, 40 and 60 days.
- Intervention effect The Almix + 2,4-DEE treatment recorded the highest net return, Rs 46,392.
- Intervention effect The Almix + 2,4-DEE treatment recorded the highest benefit : cost ratio, 3.9.
- Intervention effect Hand-weeding treatments significantly reduced weed biomass.
- Intervention effect Hand-weeding treatments improved rice grain yield.
