Effects of Water Management Regimes Combined with Soil-customized Fertilizer Management on Yield and Water use Efficiency of Pathum Thani 1 Rice Grown on Samut Prakan Soil Series

Fertilizer and water management practices in accordance with plant requirements lead to improved productivity and water use efficiency (WUE) of the rice production system. An objective of the present study was to compare paddy yield and yield components as well as WUE of Pathum Thani 1 rice grown on Samut Prakan soil series. A group comparison t-test with 15 replications was used. Two treatments associated with water management practices were as follows; 1) alternate wetting and drying (AWD) and 2) continuous flooding (CF). Fertilizers were applied to both treatments according to the recommendation made by the All-rice1 application. Data associated with yields and yield components were recorded on day 120 after the transplant. Results showed that yields and yield components of the AWD and CF rice did not differ significantly (P>0.05). However, the AWD could save water usage by 20.44% and increase water use efficiency by 21.21% when compared to the CF rice. Thus, a combination of AWD and soil-customized fertilizer management practices is one of the promising practices to improve rice growing productivity and water use efficiency.
