Water management as a cultural practice for rice direct seeding on wet paddy surface in saline soil
Three levels of water control and nitrogen application were treated in direct seeding on wet paddy surface using Gancheok rice variety under different levels of saline soil. Results showed that all the yield components decreased with higher salinity levels and longer intervals of irrigation. Salt co...

Summary: | Three levels of water control and nitrogen application were treated in direct seeding on wet paddy surface using Gancheok rice variety under different levels of saline soil. Results showed that all the yield components decreased with higher salinity levels and longer intervals of irrigation. Salt concentration of 0.2% has no yield reduction, but yield decreased with higher salinity level of 0.4% regardless of water management and amount of nitrogen applications. The data showed that rice cultivation could be possible, the condition when the irrigation was at four-day intervals with 180 kg per hectare of nitrogen under 0.4% salinity level indicating the reclaimed area where relatively high salt concentration can gain optimum yield by cultural practices such as water management with appropriate nitrogen application |
