Other claims from this paper (14)
- Observation SRI rice grain yields ranged from 5.6 to 7.3 t ha −1.
- Intervention effect SRI grain yield averaged 21% higher than traditional flooding in 2005.
- Intervention effect SRI grain yield averaged 22% higher than traditional flooding in 2006.
- Intervention effect SRI had higher harvest index than traditional flooding across four nitrogen rates in both years.
- Intervention effect Above-ground biomass did not differ significantly between cultivation systems in either year.
- Intervention effect At 80 kg N ha −1, SRI significantly increased agronomic nitrogen use efficiency over traditional flooding.
- Intervention effect At higher nitrogen rates, SRI agronomic nitrogen use efficiency was significantly lower than traditional flooding.
- Intervention effect SRI partial factor productivity exceeded traditional flooding across nitrogen rates, except that the difference at 240 kg N ha −1 was not significant.
- Association Increasing nitrogen rate significantly decreased agronomic nitrogen use efficiency and partial factor productivity under both systems.
- Intervention effect SRI reduced irrigation water use by 40% in 2005 relative to traditional flooding.
- Intervention effect SRI reduced irrigation water use by 47% in 2006 relative to traditional flooding.
- Intervention effect SRI significantly increased total and irrigation water use efficiency over traditional flooding.
- Association The highest nitrogen rate was associated with lower grain yield, nitrogen use efficiency, and water use efficiency in both systems.
- Observation Cultivation system, nitrogen rates, and their interaction yielded significant differences.
