Emergence, growth of weeds and growth, yields of rice (cv. Sam Seung Byeo) were determined at different transplanting times and nitrogen levels. Dominant weed species were Cyperus difformis, Rotala indica, Monochoria vaginalis, Cyperus serotinus, Sagiitaria pygmaea, Scirpus hotarui, and Fimbristylis miliacea. Number of weeds was increased in earlier transplanting time and but decreased in high nitrogen level. Dry weight of weeds was decreased with increase of nitrogen level at early transplanting time (May 26) but increased at nitrogen 8 or 16㎏/10a, Plant height, dry weight, leaf area index, and yield of rice were decreased as transplanting time was delayed but increased as nitrogen level increased. Yield reduction of rice due to weed competition was increased in earlier transplanting time and decreased in high nitrogen level.

In the characteristics of intra-specific competition according to bulrush density, the intra-specific competition in plant height began at 5 and 15% per pot in mixed culture and bulrush monoculture, respectively. The intra-specific competition in the shoot began at 5 plants per pot in both mixed culture and bulrush monoculture. The competition in dry matter weight began at 15 plants per pot in monoculture, and at 10 plants in mixed culture. On the rice density, the plant height, and numbers of shoot and dry matter weight in rice were rapidly increased up to 2.6, and 2.5 plants per pot, respectively, And then the increments were slow, The critical intra-specific competition of bulrush with rice was 2.5 to 3 plants per pot in their traits of rice, and especially the number of shoots and dry matter weights per pot showed significant decrements. In the different transplanting time in rice, the plant heights in both rice and bulrush elongated longer in mixed culture than in monoculture. The plant height of bulrush became shorter but the height of rice longer with late transplanting. The ratio of shoot number in rice to the number in bulrush was about 1 : 3 in all plots, and shoot numbers became less by late transplanting. The dry matter weight in both species were decreased by late transplanting, and the decrements were more prominent in bulrush than in rice.

An experiment was conducted to obtain the basic information about competitive ability of rice against weeds as affected by culm length at the Yeongnam Crop Experiment Station, Office of Rural Development in 1980. More weeds were harvested from the plot of short statured cultivar, Manseogbyeo compared to the plot of Cheongcheongbyeo that was approximately 10cm taller than Manseogbyeo regardless of planting density variables. Weeds also decreased as rice population increased from $30{\times}15cm$, $40{\times}(10{\times}10cm)$ and to $10{\times}10cm$, in order. The degree of weed suppression and floristic composition was varied depending upon plant spacing and weeding regime subjected at the previous year. The degree of weed suppression became increased with increasing rice population. The degree of weed suppression at the $10{\times}10cm$ plant spacing showed as high as hand weeding subjected in the previous year. However, in terms of floristic composition, Scirpus hotarui Roxb. became dominant when rice had cultivated at $10{\times}10cm$ plant spacing in the previous year while S. hotarui and Sagittaria pygmaea Miq. were both important in the hand weeding plot. The highest grain yield of rice showed at the $10{\times}10cm$ plant spacing while no significant difference was observed between $40{\times}(10{\times}10cm)$ and $30{\times}15cm$ plant spacings for both weeding regimes and both cultivars. However, response of grain yield to weeding regime was differed in two cultivars. For Manseobgyeo, significant grain yield decreased in no weeding plot regardless of plant spacing variables. But in case of Cheongcheongbyeo, grain yield reduction was only recognized at the $30{\times}15cm$ plant spacing. Based on these result it could be concluded that Cheongcheongbyeo (10cm taller in height) seemed to be more competitive against weeds than Manseogbyeo.

The plant height, shoot numbers and dry matter weight in both bulrush and rice were increased by high level of nitrogen fertilizer and especially the dry matter weights in both species were sharply increased by high level of nitrogen fertilizer. The plant height, dry matter weight in rice, and shoot, and dry matter weight in bulrush were increased by high level of phosphorus fertilizer. The deficient symptom disappeared with change of low level into high level phosphorus in rice. The plant height, dry matter weight and shoot numbers in rice and bulrush were increased by high level of potassium fertilizer. In the inter-specific competition in bulrush according to various water levels, the plant heights in both species elongated longer with deep water levels, and the plant height and dry matter weight in bulrush were more sharply decreased than in rice by deep water levels. The shoot numbers and dry matter weight were critically dropped above 6-8 cm water level. In case of the shoot numbers for light source, in both species were more decreased in mixed culture than each monoculture. The exserted shoot length and weight in bulrush were larger than those in rice. The shaded shoot dry weight was more decreased in mixed culture than in each monoculture, and the decrement was larger in bulrush than in rice.

To investigate the varietal differences of weed competitive functions under the three different seasons of transplanting, rice cultivars Milyang 23 and Sadominori were used with seven weeding methods, namely, weedy check, weed-free, once weeding at 3, 6, 9, 12 weeks after transplanting, and two times weeding at 3 and 9 weeks after transplanting, respectively. As a result, weeding stages and times for the proper weeding efficacies and reasonable rice productivities by respective weed group and total weed flora were estimated. Also, the constructive characteristics for yield formations under the different competitive conditions as affected by various cropping patterns were discussed.

This experiment was conducted to find out the effect of competitive duration and density of Cyperus serotinus Rottb. on rice growth and yield. In plant height of both rice and flatsedge, the compacter density of flatsedge, the higher was plant height. Rice in the 50 days competition with flatsedge had shorter culm than in other competition plots at all density. The panicle number was affected during the tillering stage. The spikelet number per panicle was influenced from 25 days to 50 days after transplanting. Grain maturity ratio and 1,000 grain-weight didn't decrease under competition before 50 days after transplanting. The competition during the tillering stage to the young panicle initiation stage decreased significantly rice yield. The rice competed with low density of flat sedge showed small decrement of yield and its components. The period reaching to maximum stem number of flatsedge become shorter as flatsedge density increased. Number of flatsedge tubers competed with rice produced was 40.1, 16.8 and 11.4 times as much in 1: 1, 1:3 and 1:5 density ratio of rice to flatsedge, respectively. Flatsedge dry matter weight and rough rice yield had the relationship of Y = 601. 95-$0.67x^{**}$.

This study was conducted to predict the rice yield loss and to determine the economic threshold levels for direct-seeding flooded rice cultivation from competition to the most serious perennial weeds, Cyperus serotinus Rottb. and Echinochloa crus-galli L. The rice yield loss model of C. serotinus and E. crus-galli were predicted as Y = 560 kg/(1+0.001883x), $r^2$=0.933, and Y = 507 kg/(1+0.001734x), $r^2$=0.867, respectively. In comparison of the competitiveness represented by parameter ${\beta}$, it was 0.001883 in C. serotinus and 0.001734 in E. crus-galli, respectively. Economic thresholds calculated using Cousens' equation were negatively related with the competitiveness of weed. The economic thresholds of C. serotinus and E. crus-galli were 15.5 and 2.3 plants per $m^2$, respectively.

Very recently, the cultural pattern of paddy rice in Korea was transitted in a short period, and resulted as earlier in season and more in fertillizer application among others. Specially the weed emergence in paddy fields was drastically increased as affected by change of cultural pattern into early planting and into direct seeding methods. Of course, the direct-seeding in row seeding induced more weeds than in broad-cast direct -seeding. By maintaining the water level with saturation of the paddy surface induced more weeds, relatively more annual weeds than by deep in water level, respectively. Relatively more annuals in number of species and in emerged quantity comparing with perennials was caused by the shifting of cultural methods from transplanting to direct seeding. The severe weed competition damages were mainly resulted due to the shading by taller plant heights of weeds than crop during the whole growing seasons. Conclusively, accepting of direct seeding methods in paddy rice culture in Korea, the present bases for weed control methods ought to be naturally and effectively improved to meet the newly made weed problems.

This study was conducted to make the rice yield prediction model system as affected by densities of Aneilema keisak and Aeschynomene indica and to determine their economic threshold levels in flooded direct-seeded rice. When the density of A. keisak was 8 plants per $m^2$, the yield of rice reduced to 8% and as the density increased up to 96 plants per $m^2$, the reduced rate of rice yield reached to 45% and in A. indica, the reduced rate of rice yield were 20 and 77%, respectively. The rice yield loss models of A. keisak and A. indica were predicted as Y=553.2 kg (1+0.00913X), $R^2=0.912^{**}$ and Y=567.9 kg/(1+0.04434X), $R^2=0.961^{**}$, respectively. Economic threshold levels calculated using cousens' equation were 3.0 plants per $m^2$ in A. keisak and 0.6 plants per $m^2$ in A. indica.
