Other claims from this paper (10)
- Observation More rice foliage was cut in 1990 than 1991 with slower initial water rise.
- Observation Jaladhi–1 yielded the most rice foliage, followed by CN573–321–7–1, Panidhan and Utkalprabha.
- Observation CN573–321–7–1 had the greatest grain yield and the least pronounced response to foliage cutting.
- Observation Jaladhi–1 had the lowest grain yield.
- Intervention effect Removing foliage significantly decreased Jaladhi–1 grain yield.
- Intervention effect September cutting had no effect on grain yield of CN573–321–7–1, Panidhan and Utkalprabha.
- Intervention effect October cutting was detrimental to rice grain yield, particularly as a second cut.
- Intervention effect A single October cut was not harmful to grain yield of CN573–321–7–1 and Panidhan.
- Intervention effect Panicles per square meter and 1000-grain weight remained unaffected after two foliage cuts.
- Recommendation The authors suggest harvesting foliage of long-duration, tall, photosensitive rice for cattle without harming grain yield in semi-deep lowlands.
