Nursery management

 
•  Select well filled high density seed of variety suitable to the location/season by
    treating in salt water solution of specific gravity 1.08 (20 lt per 5 kg seed) prepared by
    dissolving 80 g common salt in one litre of water.
•  Plough the nursery area (1000 m2 per ha. of main field) at optimum moisture to get  
    fine tilth and prepare raised seed beds of 1.0 to 1.5 m w

Direct Seeded Rice

Rice can be directly seeded either through dry or wet (pregerminated) seeding.

Dry seeding of rice can be done by drilling the seed into a fine seedbed at a depth of 2-3 centimeters.

Wet seeding requires leveled fields to be harrowed and then flooded (puddling). The field is left for 12-24 hours after puddling, then germinated seeds (48-72 hours) are sown using a drum seeder.

Seed can be broadcast for either dry or wet seeding, but manual weeding is
