Other claims from this paper (9)
- Intervention effect Plant height did not differ between irrigation treatments within a variety.
- Intervention effect Flooded paddy rice had better weed control than drip production.
- Observation Cybonet shoots were shorter than those of Bengal and Neptune.
- Observation Cybonet matured two weeks earlier than Bengal and Neptune.
- Intervention effect Cybonet yielded more under drip irrigation than flooding.
- Observation Bengal had the best production at 3,720 lb/acre.
- Intervention effect Bengal benefited from flooded versus drip irrigation.
- Intervention effect Neptune produced more under drip than flooded irrigation.
- Recommendation Rice can be grown with drip irrigation in the Virgin Islands with yields comparable to flooded paddies.
