Hence traditional varieties viz., Kattuyanam Rice and Red kavuni rice were taken for the study. A group of 5 volunteers from both sexes aged between 25 and 45 years with a normal BMI and apparently healthy with no family history of diabetes or obesity were selected for the study. Cooking of rice was carried out according to preset conditions adding similar quantity of water and rice flakes and similar duration of cooking for a particular variety of rice flakes.

Hence drudgery reduction was studied using Rotary weeder and Modified conoweeder. The experiment was carried out in 20 farmers field in Tiruvallur district. The experiment consisted of 20 farmers belonging to age group of 25- 50 year who were working regularly in the field. The experiment for hand weeding method consisted of 12 women farmers. These women farmers belonged to the age group of 20 -48 years. With regard to weeding efficiency, the modified cono weeder has the highest weeding efficiency (88%) .
