Reducing environmental risk of nitrogen by popularizing mechanically dense transplanting for rice production in China
Published 2020-09-01Get full textThe high nitrogen (N) application rates typically used in Chinese cropping systems have led to diminishing returns for yields and have also imposed substantial environmental costs. Here, we estimate that the annual N loss from rice production in China reached approximately 2.6×109 kg from 2011 to 20...

No-tillage effects on grain yield and nitrogen requirements in hybrid rice transplanted with single seedlings: Results of a long-term experiment
Published 2019-01-01Get full textThis study was conducted to determine whether, and if so how, the grain yield and nitrogen (N) requirements of hybrid rice transplanted as single seedlings are affected by no-tillage (NT) practices. A fixed field experiment was done at the Experimental Farm of Hunan Agricultural University in Changs...

Continuous applications of biochar to rice: Effects on grain yield and yield attributes
Published 2019-03-01Get full textBiochar is considered as a beneficial soil amendment for crop production. However, limited information is available on the effects of continuous applications of biochar on rice. In this study, a fixed field experiment was conducted in the early and late rice-growing seasons from 2015 to 2017. Grain...

Comparisons of Yield and Growth Behaviors of Hybrid Rice Under Different Nitrogen Management Methods in Tropical and Subtropical Environments
Published 2013-04-01Get full textTo compare the grain yield and growth behaviors of hybrid rice, field experiments were conducted in a subtropical environment in Changsha, Hunan Province, China, and in two tropical environments in Gazipur and Habiganj in Bangladesh during 2009 to 2011. Three hybrid rice cultivars were grown under t...

Effect of Nitrogen Regimes on Grain Yield, Nitrogen Utilization, Radiation Use Efficiency, and Sheath Blight Disease Intensity in Super Hybrid Rice
Published 2012-01-01Get full textPoor nitrogen use efficiency in rice production is a critical issue in China. Site-specific N managements (SSNM) such as real-time N management (RTNM) and fixed-time adjustable-dose N management (FTNM) improve fertilizer-N use efficiency of irrigated rice. This study was aimed to compare the differe...
