- Observation The four-way interaction significantly affected aboveground biomass, productive spike number and hundred seed weight
- Observation The four-way interaction significantly affected grain yield
- Observation MC18 with granular silicon gave a mean grain yield of 4.17 t ha −1 under field and drought conditions
- Observation MC18 with liquid silicon gave a mean grain yield of 2.56 t ha −1 under field and drought conditions
- Observation MC18 without silicon gave a mean grain yield of 2.18 t ha −1 under field and drought conditions
