This study was conducted to determine the appropriate transplanting time for growing one year old rhizome of Atractylodes macrocephala Koidz. Transplanting on March 20 and April 5 showed the highest in plant height and shoot fresh weight but dry rhizome weight was the highest in the transplanting time of April 5. As the growth time of 209 days showed was the highest yield of dry rhizome. As a result, it seemed that the appropriate planting time was April 5 to 10 in the north area of the Kyongsangbuk-do. The shortest emergence time was that the accumulated temperature of early growth period was 267$^{\circ}C$, and that of highest dry rhizome yield was 3$600^{\circ}C$ for whole growth period.
