Description and Table of Contents

Description

Rice is a leading staple food crop in the world. One third of the world's population depends on rice for nearly two thirds of its food. Increased rice production is therefore a necessity in many development countries and can be achieved by augmenting the yield per unit area and adopting productive and environmentally viable cropping technologies. The emphasis in this work is on an integrated approach to weed management under various systems around the world.
