The rice plants we need most in this world

Rice is one of the most important food crops in the world. Rice in Latin is called Oryza sativa L. is one of the most vital cultivation plants in Indonesia.

Although world rice production is ranked third after corn and wheat, but rice is the main source of carbohydrate food for most of the world community. In Indonesia alone rice ranks first as a staple food for most people. But unfortunately until now national rice production has not been able to meet the needs of our society, in other words Indonesia has not been able to be self-sufficient rice. As an agricultural country with wide rice fields, rice production should be in Indonesia abundant. Minimum for domestic needs. But the fact is very ironic, we still import rice and worse yet Indonesia is the largest rice importer in the world.

We need to know and understand the selection of seeds, preparation nursery, soil processing,, how to seedlings, how to plant rice paddy will get a healthy plant, high productivity with low input costs. Healthy plants are the main requirements that must be met for high productivity. Therefore, from the beginning, rice plants should be treated as best as possible so that water, nutrients in the available soil can be utilized as much as possible.

Care and maintenance of plants is very important in the implementation of rice cultivation. The things that farmers often do are weeding (weed control). Weeds are herbs that live with cultivated plants and are generally very harmful to rice crops. Besides can be a host plant of several pests and causes of disease, weeds are competitors for the nutrients of water, place and sunlight. Moreover weeds have the same root system with rice so that the food elements needed by weeds and rice come from the same soil layer. Weeding weeding done 2 stages, where the first stage of weeding done at the age of the plant approximately 15 days and the second stage at the age of plants aged 30-35 days. Weeding is done by weeding the weeds and turned off with or without using tools, usually weeding is done in conjunction with the activities of embroidery ..
