Abstract
Grain yield and quality can be improved by agronomical managements such as water and fertilizer. The objective of this study was to evaluate the responses of grain yield and zinc (Zn) and nitrogen (N) concentrations on water management and foliar Zn application among five glutinous rice varieties. The experiment was arranged in factorial in RCBD with two replications. Five glutinous rice varieties (RD4, RD6, RD10, RD14 and SPT1) were grown under waterlogged and non-flooded soils with and without applying of foliar Zn fertilizer. The results showed that rice grown under well-drained soil had reduced grain yield and individual grain weight by averaged about 34 % and 7 %, respectively. Similarly, the lower straw dry weight and number of filled grain was found in rice grown under the non - flooded soil. Applying foliar Zn increased grain Zn concentration by 43 - 92 % which was found in all rice varieties. Grain N concentration of rice applied with foliar Zn also increased by 9 - 12 % in RD4, RD6 and RD14, but the statistical difference was not found in RD10 and SPT1 varieties. This experiment indicated that growing glutinous rice under the non - flooded soil resulted in the reduction of grain yield. In the meantime, foliar Zn application could improve the number of filled grains and an individual grain weight as well as effectively increased grain Zn and N concentrations. The different response among glutinous rice varieties on water management and Zn fertilizer application would be useful information to manage the appropriated environmental condition for rice growing to improve grain yield and quality.
