Intense summer heat in Japan has severely impacted rice quality, leading to a shift toward heat-resistant varieties. The Niigata prefecture’s “Shinnosuke” and the National Agriculture and Food Research Organization’s “Niji-no-kirameki” have seen increased cultivation, with “Fufufu” gaining traction in Toyama Prefecture. Despite efforts, only 5% of Niigata’s Koshihikari rice was first-grade in 2023, down from 80%. The agriculture ministry is investing in heat-resistant techniques and equipment to counteract these challenges. #SummerHeat #Japan #RiceQuality #HeatResistantVarieties #NationalAgricultureandFoodResearchOrganization #AgricultureMinistry

🌾 I am excited to share the adoption of a 3% brine solution treatment for Paddy seeds to enhance germination. This was an astonishing experience during our participation in the RAWE program, collaborating with host farmers in Nachan Bhatti Village, a model village of KVK Sindewahi. Here’s an overview of the procedure, method, proportions, and the benefits it offers: Procedure: We prepare a 3% brine solution by dissolving common salt in water, ensuring thorough mixing for uniformity. Method: Paddy seeds are treated by soaking them in the brine solution to optimize effectiveness. Proportions: We use a precisely measured concentration of 300 grams of salt per 10 liters of water to achieve optimal Seed treatment. Treatment Duration: Seeds are typically submerged in the brine solution for several minutes, followed by thorough washing with clean water to remove any excess salt residue. Advantages: »Extends shelf life by inhibiting microbial growth. »Enhances grain quality. »Cost-effective compared to chemical treatments. »Environmentally friendly, using natural ingredients. #Agriculture #Paddy #RAWE #AgriculturalInnovation #BrineSolution #SustainableFarming

#Rice_Ratoon_and_its_prospects_in_Bangladesh I have limited knowledge about rice ratooning from my research perspective. However, based on my experience with rice ratooning technology and our team research, I can say that it is feasible in slightly saline conditions and, to some extent, in moderately saline conditions. However, it is not possible in strongly saline conditions. Our research team has conducted two studies in the coastal saline belt of Khulna after the Boro season—one in strongly saline soil (Published) and the other in slightly saline soil (Under publication) —funded by #GNOBB. We have already achieved ratooning success in slightly saline conditions. In our experiment, we used five different rice varieties, including hybrid and BRRI-developed varieties, which were sourced from the nearest market. Our research team observed a ratoon yield ranging from approximately 6.5% to 33% of the first crop yield. Our research team plan to continue working on this project later this year. In Bangladesh, Dr. Abed Chowdhury has discovered a rice variety called Panchabrihi, which has the potential to become an important variety in the country. Bangladesh has diverse agricultural patterns across its various geographical regions, so introducing rice varieties with ratooning ability could be highly beneficial for local and poorer farmers. I have gathered information from news articles, reports, and online sources about Panchabrihi. If this variety is introduced to local farmers, it could offer widespread benefits. There are both positive and negative aspects of #rice_ratooning and Panchabrihi. I am unsure whether any research articles have been published on Panchabrihi, though I have searched for them. It may need to be introduced throughout Bangladesh for region-specific benefits. Currently, farmers practice 3- to 4-crop patterns in a year. The question remains: will Panchabrihi outperform the existing cropping patterns in terms of benefits to farmers? If Panchabrihi proves to be more beneficial, and if it is suitable for various geographical conditions such as heat, stress, salinity, and drought, then farmers may adopt this variety. Only thorough research can reveal the true potential of these varieties.
