Rice grows better when there is no water in the fields. During the previous period, the author had arrived at a demonstration site for rice production in the town of cui pyong, where he was able to remove the seedlings and see the wet soil of the black twilight, which was quite different from the perception that the rice fields must be full of water。
The technical staff of the agricultural technology service centre of guipin city, known as the hydro-gas equilibrium technology, is one of the initiatives of the city's agricultural sector to develop clean fields. Using the principle of water permeability, this technology has broken the tradition of rice being grown without water and without rice, by building water channels connected to the field, and by using natural precipitation and a small amount of artificial ditches to fill the field with water。
It is understood that the hydro-gas balance technology began to be rolled out in the city of guipin in 2011 and that only over 100 acres of experimental fields were initially opened in the village of fuping, the town of stone dragon. “when the new technology was introduced, there was nothing in everyone's mind. Increased production of at least 50 kilograms per acre was not expected in the first year of the test field.” the director of the agricultural technology extension station in guiping city, zhang jiahuang, introduced 480,000 acres of agricultural land in guiping city this year through radiation-led projects in demonstration areas。
“the water channel runs through the paddy fields, which can be drained and unspoiled, but can maintain the moisture required for rice and make the soil more oxygen-rich, which is more conducive to rice growth. Water is a hotbed for bacteria, reducing the amount of water accumulated in the field and reducing the amount of stale disease and rice lice.” as a result, the use of pesticides and fertilizers has been reduced and the contamination of pesticides and fertilizers in the field has been reduced
One of the beneficiaries of this new technology is uncle yang of the new village of dragon town. He planted over 60 acres of rice this year, all using hydro-gas balance technology. Mr. Yang was pleased to bring up a rice crop from his family's field and told the writer that the introduction of hydro-gas balanced cultivation had led to an increase in production and a saving of 1,000 dollars a year on diverse fertilizers and pesticides。
