Effects of the Double-Cutting Method for Ratooning Rice in the SALIBU System under Different Soil Moisture Conditions on Grain Yield and Regeneration Rate

In West Sumatra, Indonesia, a high-yield perennial rice cropping method called SALIBU was recently reported, in which the most unique feature is double cutting (DC) at harvest and after harvest. The objective of this study was to verify the ratooning rice yield under the SALIBU system in Myanmar. Tw...

description In West Sumatra, Indonesia, a high-yield perennial rice cropping method called SALIBU was recently reported, in which the most unique feature is double cutting (DC) at harvest and after harvest. The objective of this study was to verify the ratooning rice yield under the SALIBU system in Myanmar. Two cultivation trials consisting of two cutting and three moisture treatments were conducted in 2019 and 2020. We concluded that double cutting had no positive effect on grain yield and regeneration rate compared with single cutting (SC). For the cutting regime, significant results were detected in the ratoon crops on yield components, but all of these were negative effects of DC, and were statistically lower than those of SC. On the other hand, a significant positive effect of moisture regime on grain yield in all ratoons was observed. The grain yield of the dry regime was significantly increased by 69% compared with that of the saturated regime. Soil oxidation conditions during the initial growth period of ratoons could contribute to the improved yield performance of the ratoons.
