This study determined the comparative performance of biofertilizers under anaerobic conditions. Statistical analysis showed significant results on the average rice plant height per sample plant, fresh weight of grains (kg), and weight of filled grains. But significant results on the number of panicle per sample plant, number of filled grains per panicle and number of unfilled grain per panicle were observed. Rice plants from T6 (BioN + 1/2 RR) produced the heaviest grains (181.33 kg/ha), while T1 and T4 both yielded the lightest grains (140.00). The following are recommended: 1. Planting of hybrid rice in Kalinga because of high yield and heavy grains. 2. Biofertilization under anaerobic condition for rice production using the recommended rates of Bio-N, Vital-N, Bio-Con, and Exquisite. 3. The use of T6 (Bio-N + 1/2 RR) based on its heaviest grains produced per sample plant (7253 kg/ha). 4. Conduct of follow-up studies under more cropping seasons.
