- Abstract
With consideration of highly-efficient use of natural resources, reducing production cost and construction of high-standard agricultural fields, rice production of good seed+fertilizer investment is reformed on basis of research of smash-ridging technology, and rice smash-ridging ecological and highly-efficient cultivation was proposed, namely, smash-ridging based deeply poughing and rotary tillage technology was used to loosen soils deeply, with the depth from 13-15 cm to 26-28 cm. Furthermore, after soils softening, seedling slinging or direct seeding was adopted, which is dominated by natural rainfall and supplemented by artificial irrigation. The test proved that the technology help increasing yield and profits over 20%, with chemical fertilizer reduced by more than 10%, and labor cost reduced by 10%. What's more, if the technology applied once, no-tillage or slight tillage is recommended in the field, which would maintain original eco-conditions of soils and reach high yield, with energy, water, labor costs reduced in an environment-friendly way.
