All the parameters i.e. total and productive tillers m2, plant height, days to 50% heading and maturity spike-1 were significantly affected by sowing dates. Both the total and productive tillers m2 were highest when the crop was sown on Ist November and lowest when sowing was done on 20th December. Heading and maturity were delayed in the plot sown earlier, grain spike-1 were highest on 20th November and 1000 grain weight were highest upto the sowing date of 30th November. Seed rates had only significantly affected 1000 grain weight which reduced when the seed rate was increased to 99 kg ha-1.
