Abstract
A survey was conducted at fifty different rice fields in coastal areas of Lucknow region to identify most common and prevalent weeds associated with rice. Fields surveyed were done according to the quantitative survey method by using 0.5m× 0.5m size quadrate with twenty samples from each field. Total thirty weed species were collected which related to fifteen families and twenty six generas from the rice field in the Lucknow region.
