Abstract:

Orderly mechanical seedling-broadcasting refers to the rice establishment methods that throw-transplanted the rice seedlings to the field in rows and lines by seedling broadcasting machine. Which are suggested to prominently increase the uniformity and efficiency of rice crops compared with manual seedling broadcasting. The present study was carried out to compare the differences between orderly mechanical seedling-broadcasting, manual transplanting and manual seedling broadcasting regarding yield formation and growth characteristics of rice. The results suggested that the grain yield of rice under orderly mechanical seedling-broadcasting was increased compared with manual transplanting and manual seedling broadcasting by 22.4%-28.3% and 2.8%-8.9%, respectively. On the aspect of growth traits, the orderly mechanical seedling-broadcasting was characterized as good ventilation, better assimilation ability of dry matter at late growth stages, delayed leaf senescence and high grain filling percentage, which increased the panicle numbers per square meter by 20.9%-64.2% compared with that of manual transplanting and increased the seed setting rate as compared with manual seedling-broadcasting. However, in order to further develop the potential of high yield, the techniques and planting machines of orderly mechanical seedling-broadcasting still need to be improved. In addition, the process of seedling recovery, tiller development and root growth traits of rice under orderly mechanical seedling-broadcasting should be explored in future studies.

Key words: rice, orderly mechanical seedling-broadcasting, yield, growth characteristics
