Three early duration varieties of rice at three plant densities were evaluated to determine plant population influence on yield production. Results revealed that LAI at flowering and dry matter production from early growth stages had a close association with seed yield. Seed rate at 100 kg/ha was found optimum for obtaining higher yield.
