This study aimed to determine the optimum seeding rate of rice (Oryza Sativa L.) cultivars in iraq. The experiment was conducted at Al Diwaniyah Research Station, Agricultural Research Office/Ministry of Agriculture for two seasons 2019 and 2021. A Factorial Experiment Design was used According to RCBD design in an order of split plot with three replicates, The main plots occupied the cultivars factor which was: - Yasamine (Y), Forat (F), Dijla (D), Baraka (B), Gadeer (G) and Anbar (A). While the seeding rate factor filled sub plots: - 40, 60, 80, 100, 120, 140 Kg ha-1. The research results for both seasons, indicated that each cultivar had an ideal seeding rate, as the seeding rate for the Y variety is 120 kgha-1, as it gave the best leaf area, the weight of 1000 grain, and the grains panicles-1, which was reflected in the best grain yield at this level. The results also showed that the seeding rate for the F variety was 140 kgha-1, as it gave the best plant height, panicles m-2, weight of 1000 grain, and grains panicles-1, thus giving the best grain yield at this level. The results showed that the seeding rate for variety D was 140 kgha-1, which gave the best plant height, leaf area, panicles m-2, and grains panicles-1, which reflected positively on the best grain yield at this level. The results indicated that the seeding rate for variety B was kgha-1, as it gave the best plant height, panicle m-2, unfertility, and grains panicles-1, which was reflected in the best grain yield at this level. As for the G variety, the best seeding rate was 120 kgha-1, as it excelled in all the studied treatments (plant height, panicle length, leaf area, panicles m-2, weight of 1000 grain, unfertility, and grains panicles-1), which was significantly reflected on the grain yield at this level. Whereas, cultivar A showed that the best seeding rate was 140 kgha-1 if it gave the best plant height, leaf area and panicles m-2 and thus gave the best grain yield at this level.
