Dormancy becomes a problem for the determination of germination percentage within the limited period for specific varieties of rice. The standard procedures from Handbooks of seeds analysis for breaking dormancy were found to be ineffective. In this study, different cultivars of rice seeds harvested by combine or hands were treated by four different methods to investigate the effectiveness of overcoming dormancy. The results indicated that the hulls removed technique was a rapid method to overcome the dormancy characteristics for different varieties. The harvested techniques did not show the significantly difference for comparison.
