Abstract
Experiments were conducted with 12 rice cultivars for three consecutive years from
1984-85 to 1987-88 during kharif and rabi seasons in randomised block design. Pooled analysis of
the data for kharif and rabi seasons indicated that MO 4 registered the highest grain yield in the
kharif (5068 kg/ha) and rabi (4891 kg/ha) crop seasons. Hence MO 4 can be recommended for
cultivation in Wynad in both the seasons. Edavaka was also found to be a promising cultivar when
grain yield, straw yield and comparatively shorter duration were considered and hence requires
further studies.
