[#planting_area] Summer-autumn rice is about to enter the flowering stage. Essential measures are required:
Summer-autumn rice is about to enter the 🌾 flowering stage, a critical period that directly impacts yield and grain quality. To achieve a breakthrough this season, essential measures are required:
1️⃣. Fertilization:
Panicle Initiation Fertilization: Apply when rice starts to bloom sporadically, approximately 5-7 days after panicle initiation. Use fertilizers high in nitrogen, moderate in potassium, and low in phosphorus.
Grain Filling Fertilization: Apply when rice is in full bloom, approximately 10-15 days after panicle initiation fertilization. Use fertilizers high in potassium, moderate in nitrogen and phosphorus.
2️⃣. Irrigation:
Maintain a water level of 2-3 cm in the paddy field.
Irrigate in the early morning or cool evening to avoid affecting rice pollination.
Avoid irrigating during panicle initiation and ripening stages.
3️⃣. Pest and Disease Control:
The flowering stage is when rice is most susceptible to pests and diseases such as blast disease, brown planthopper, and silver leaf. Regularly inspect fields for early detection and timely control measures.
Use pesticides according to instructions from authorized agencies.
4️⃣. Weed Management:
Weeds compete with rice for nutrients, affecting yield and grain quality. Manually remove weeds or use herbicides for control.
5️⃣. Weather Monitoring and Forecasting:
Regularly monitor weather forecasts to implement timely measures against flooding, drought, and storms.
6️⃣. Harvesting at the Right Time:
Harvest when rice is evenly golden yellow, approximately 25-30 days after flowering.
Harvest in the early morning or cool evening to prevent grain cracking.
By applying these practices, farmers can expect a bountiful summer-autumn rice harvest.
Key considerations: ✅
Consult local agricultural extension officers for appropriate rice care practices tailored to specific regional conditions.
Use fertilizers and pesticides judiciously, following manufacturers' instructions.
Wishing you a bountiful harvest!
