a technology the intbrmation obtained from sophisticated experiments.
Rice cultivation is an enterprise to produce rice through the growth process o1‘
the plant under various environmental conditions. How to utilize the environmental
resources at maximum efficiency is the issue in considering rice technology.
Given reasonable supplies of water and fertilizers. solar radiation and
temperature are the major natural resources which control the productivity of
rice. Thus. growth manipulation should be designed to utilize these resources
most efficiently.
