Agricultural productivity is influenced mainly by cultural practices followed and prevailing weather conditions. Rice is the predominant cereal crop in east India including the state of West Bengal. The total cultivated area of rice in India is 43.2 million ha and the country produced 110.2 million tons of rice in 2016-17. West Bengal is the largest rice producing state in India. Almost half of its arable land is under rice cultivation. In the fiscal year 2016, the state produced about 15.75 million tonnes of rice over 5.46 million hectare cultivable area (Anonymous, 2019). Rice requires a mean temperature range of 17 to 33 °C and solar radiation range of 300 to 600 calories cm-2 day-1 in its growing areas and seasons. Rice is a water loving plant requiring a heavy rainfall of 125 cm during its vegetative period and an annual rainfall of 100-200 cm (Prasada Rao, 2008). To improve production it is imperative to understand the weather at both macro and micro-levels as weather directly influences the crop growth Effect of Transplanting Dates, Cultivars and Irrigation Regimes on Microclimate and Yield of Rice
