ABSTRACT

The practice of puddling benefits rice cultivation but it adversely affects the succeeding
upland crops by altering the physical, physico-chemical and microbial properties of the
soil. The key to successful management of upland crops in rice fallows lies in maintenance
of optimum plant stand by manipulating the soil tilth by proper tillage practices, seeding
and stand establishment techniques like seed priming. Priming is a pre-sowing practice
by which seeds are allowed to imbibe moisture or liquids followed by drying. Many
experiments proved that primed seeds ensure proper germination and good stand of
many crops especially upland crops grown in rice fallows, than non- primed seeds. The
information on tillage and seed priming effects on upland crops in rice based cropping
systems has been reviewed hereunder
