SRI (Rice Intensification System) water management of rice productivity

Abstract

Rice crop production in the field is influenced by water availability, nutrients, and rice seedlings. The application of the SRI (System of Rice Intensification) method is a method of rice cultivation that is water-efficient and can provide optimal rice crop yields. Various irrigation systems have been applied to regulate water in rice plants in SRI cultivation with varying yields. It shows that water management in the SRI method determines the production yield. The purpose of this study was to assess water management in SRI rice cultivation with varying availability of water and nutrients (the size of the growing media volume varies). The method used polynomial regression statistics on high variables, and the number of tillers was also descriptive methods on other parameters. The observations showed that irrigation management and media size affected production yields on SRI method of rice cultivation.
