A field experiment was conducted at JNKVV, College of Agricultural farmer field, Rewa (M.P.), during Kharif 2015-16 and 2016-17 in split plot design with three method of sowing/planting i.e., M1- Direct Sowing, M2- LEHI, M3- System of rice intensification assigned in main plot and four rice varieties i.e. V1- Pusa Sugandha-1, V2- Danteshwari, V3- Pusa Sugandha- 5, V4- Narendra- 97 laid in sub plot. The most suitable sowing method was M3 - system of rice intensification produced significantly higher No. of tiller m-2, No. of panicle m-2, No. of filled grains panicle-1, weight of grain panicle-1 resulted maximum grain yield (42.00 and 44.18 qha-1) over rest method of sowing; thereafter LEHI and SRI in sequence for grain yield were noticed during experimentation. Similarly, V2 performed significantly higher No. of filled grain panicle-1, weight of grains panicle-1, grain and straw yield over rest of varieties except V1 was given closed performance to the V2. Moreover maximum returns also get from the V1 gave highest B: C ratio (2.65) with combination of M3 during experimentation and proved its superiority over other for Kymore Plateau of M.P. However, the second best variety was Pusasugandha-1 during both years.
