The field trial was laid out in RBD with 12 treatments and replicated thrice in agricultural farm of Visva-Bharati during Kharif, 2014. The herbicidal treatments were bispyribac and penxsulam alone; tank of bispyribac with ethoxysulfuron and (chlorimuron + metsulfuron); pretilachlor fb ethoxysulfuron and (chlorimuron + metsulfuron) pyrazosulfuron fb (chlorimuron + metsulfuron) ready mix of penoxsulam + cyhalofop, ready mix of triafamone + ethoxysulfuron and pendimethalin fb bispyribac. Two hand weeding and weedy check also included with an idea to find out the best herbicides / herbicide mixtures for weed control in transplanted rice. Early post-emergence application of penoxsulam + cyhalofop as ready-mix was found most effective in controlling total weed population recorded the highest number of effective tillers/m2, number of grains/panicle and grain yield of transplanted rice.
