Weed management in dryland rice systems Madagascar primarily relies on manual weeding. This is a labour-intensive process at time when the workload smallholder farms particularly high and often leads to delayed weeding, one of major causes yield losses rice. The aim this study was determine critical period weed interference (CPWI) specific context low-input rice-based cropping under conventional tillage (CT). We further assess whether no-tillage with living mulch Stylosanthes guianensis (NT)...
