Saving money about $600~$900 per hectareSowing precision is high 1) Precise row spacing and hole spacing 2) Accurate seeding quantity per hole (±1) Strong lodging ability Good ventilation and good lighting due to uniform sowing High Yield Similar to rice transplantin...
Then, plot-level grain yield was computed as the grain weight in kilograms from each plot, normalized at 14% of moisture, and adjusted by the harvested areas to obtain the yield in tons per hectare. Phenotypic Data Analysis For the statistical analysis of the trials, two linear mixed models...
In cases where the level of the nitrogen compounds so necessary for a good yield is low, the production of constituent elements is not suff icient, the rate of seed formation is low, and the yield is small. Even if a large quantity of nitrogenous fertilizer is applied, it will be of...
The relative economics was calculated based on grain and straw yield per hectare, to test the relative benefits of different treatments. As per the ongoing market rates, both input as well as output cost was estimated. The benefit cost (B:C) ratio (returns on unit rupee invested) was expres...
seed rate of 60 kg ha−1. Channels were created around the nursery beds, and water was regularly let into them. Tricyclazole 75 WP @ 0.6 g kg−1seed was applied to the seeds to stop seed rot, pre-emergence damping off, and rice blast. Following appropriate puddling of plots, with ...
In addition to nearly doubling rice yields, the farmers in Fujian Province saw their profits increase by USD 3 260 per hectare, which, combined with a 30 percent decrease in the cost of fertilizer, has proven extremely beneficial to the province. In the past, many upland farmers had ratoon...
The average world farm yield for rice was 4.53 tonnes per hectare (FAO, 2014). The estimated rice straw production amounts to approximately 740.95–1111.42 million tons per year globally (Table 1). Table 1. Cultivated agricultural area and rice production in different regions of the world, and...
The factors of URS are found to be forward speed (Fs) and hopper fill level (HL) w.r.t responses of co-efficient of variation of number of seeds per hill (Cv), Seed rate (Sr), hill spacing uniformity (Us,), missing hill index (MI) and mean hill span (Hs). The optimum results...
saved seed just cost them US$0.3 per kilogram. CAVAC has introduced mechanical direct seeders through few companies for dry and wet soil condition. It is shown that the machine can potentially lower seed rate to 60 kilograms per hectare for wet season variety and 100 kilograms per hectare ...
In Table 4, agronomic characteristics are shown for rice cultivar 133009 and eleven other rice cultivars. These data are averages of multi-location yield trials. Column one shows the variety designation, column two shows the yield in kilograms per hectare (kg/ha), column three shows the plant...
