Irrigation volume per unit area (m³m⁻²) applied to 20 rice plots from transplanting to harvest, under two irrigation treatments (AWD and CF), and cultivars (CH‐45 and Hardinath‐1), for five replicates for each cultivar/treatment combination. Data are means ± SE, with different letters showing significant difference to P < 0.05 (ANOVA)

Treatment	Mean ± SE
AWD/CH‐45	0.86 ± 0.13 a
AWD/Hardinath‐1	0.54 ± 0.08 a
CF/CH‐45	1.6 ± 0.14 b
CF/Hardinath‐1	1.7 ± 0.33 b
