An investigation entitled “Effect of sowing-dates on performance of different rice varieties under upland condition” was conducted at the Instructional Farm, College of Agriculture, Rewa (M.P.) under All India Coordinated Rice Improvement Project during the Kharif season of 2014. The experiment was laid out in split-plot design with four replications. The treatments comprised of three sowing dates i.e. 3rd July, 8th July and 13th July in main plots and 5 varieties i.e. Danteshwari, Vandana, IR-64, PS-3 and PS-5 in sub plots. The varieties were sown by direct-seeding. Among the varieties, PS-3 and then PS-5 performed better in this region. They resulted maximum growth parameters and grain yield up to 40.90 to 43.27 q/ha with net income up to Rs. 48652 to 49778/ha. The most optimum date of sowing of upland rice was 3rd July which gave maximum growth parameters and grain yield up to 38.54 q/ha with net income up to Rs. 41446/ha. Thus, variety PS-3 or PS- 5 may be grown on 3rd July is suitable to obtain maximum productivity and economical grain from rice under upland conditions of this region.
