A trial was conducted on the research farm of Federal University of Agriculture, Makurdi, Nigeria during 2012 cropping season to evaluate the effect of weed management methods on the yield of lowland rice using the variety ‘FARO 44 (SIPI 692030)’. Seven treatments included conventional tillage (CT) with 2,4-D at 1.44 kg/ha at 3 WAS, CT followed by propanil applied at 1.44 kg/ha at 3 weeks after planting (WAS), CT followed by one hoe weeding at 3 WAS, CT followed by pendimethalin applied at 1.44 kg/ha, CT followed by 2 hoe weeding at 3 and 9 WAS, CT followed by 2,4-D + propanil 3 WAS at 1.44 kg/ha + 1.44 kg/ha, CT, no weed control. Results indicated that, although there was no significant differences. Trend showed that CT followed by 2 hoe weeding at 3 and 9 WAS gave the highest (p<0.005) yield of 2.45 t/ha followed by CT followed by 2,4-D + propanil at 1.44 kg/ha + 1.44 kg/ha with 2.33 t/ha. Lowest yield of 0.83 t/ha was obtained from the control plot.
