Other claims from this paper (8)
- Intervention effect Heavy soil drying increased soil hardness by 42.8%–84.7% relative to light drying.
- Observation Soil hardness under heavy drying reached 4.05 kg cm−2 at 5 cm depth.
- Observation Soil hardness under heavy drying reached 7.07 kg cm−2 at 10 cm depth.
- Intervention effect Soil drying did not significantly affect main-crop rice grain yield.
- Observation Ratoon rice yield loss was 3.4% under heavy drying.
- Observation Ratoon rice yield loss was 16.3% under light drying.
- Intervention effect Heavy drying significantly increased ratoon rice panicles per square metre in the track zone relative to light drying.
- Recommendation The authors conclude that heavy soil drying during main-crop grain filling reduces ratoon crop yield loss in mechanized rice ratooning.
