Dr. Madonna C. Casimero, acting deputy executive director for research of PhilRice (Philippine Rice Research Institute), said this weed is called weedy rice, as it is closely related to cultivated rice. As such, it is difficult to differentiate the weed and rice plants during the vegetative stage, most especially in direct-seeded rice.

Research reports indicate that if 35 percent of a rice crop is composed of weedy rice plants, grain yield losses can reach 50 to 60 percent. What’s more, greater weedy rice infestation can result in total crop loss because of competition and crop lodging.
