Title Skill of iron coating on rice seed and field managements for direct-seeding system

Introduction

To solve the problem of lack of labor in rice nursery center, and improve efficiency of rice production. We developed iron powder coating seed for rice wet-direct-seeding. By varieties selection, iron powder coating, herbicide application and irrigation management. In case of keeping production, improve efficiency of rice cultivation substantially.

Result & Effect

1. Saving more than 70% seedling cost and production time.

2. Seeding by UAV could save above 50% time of transplanting/seeding.

3. It could be an option of special variety cultivation or cultivation time.
