This article discusses how the farmers of the village of Sakalilo, county district Ilemba Sumbawanga in Rukwa, they benefited from modern rice cultivation known as intensive agriculture.
According to the article, residents of the village who are growers of paddy years were receiving an average of five to seven sack of rice per acre from traditional farming. But after getting an education through the International Development Agency of the Netherlands (SNV) in collaboration with its partners, the residents are now reaping the same acres sack between 15 to 20 polymers intensive agriculture.
Rice which we have been redeemed rice is a staple food of Tanzanians been dominated behind corn. However, the use of rice as food production has been increasing despite her keep that to a minimum. In this context, intensive farming is certainly important to be implemented by farmers across the country due to its importance. Is this what the European agriculture is called System of Rice Intensification (SRI) and how deep run, what is it exactly?
History of intensive agriculture
Information available indicates that intensive rice cultivation transcription was first discovered in Madagascar by Fr. Henri de Laulanié approximately 20 years ago. Since then, agricultural practices that have shown great potential everywhere on earth actually spent and reforming the major rice.
The world record
Is defined by a network of miradikwanza. blogspot.com that the record of the world's rice production alive and universities for agricultural research, and older American farmers to produce as much. That record is kept by a farmer from the village of Darveshpura in India. By applying this principle to intensive rice cultivation, Darveshpura broke the world record by producing 22.4 tons (224 bags) per acre.
The record was previously held by a citizen of China who has to get 19 tons (190 bags) in one ups. Average yield for the world as a farmer will make good use of intensive agricultural practices, including best seed is four tonnes (40 bags downs).
What lurks behind intensive farming
The first is to reduce the density of seedlings farmer should plant a seedling as individuals for the position to the roots and trunk enough to have the maximum opportunity to grow. Second, in this farm there is little use of water for irrigation, so the farmer can use excess water to other activities. Third, the farmer can plant a large area with few seeds. Fourth, the crop will come out a lot and it is difficult to find disease (more than double the usual way). This method improves the soil and weeding his land has made contain more nutrients.
Important factors to consider?
A small amount of seed is used in this farm (2 to 3 kg per acre). ? Area of 40 square meters per acre of nursery suffices. ? One seedling for every embankment used? In one square meter should ridges 16? The greatest demand for weeding as one would naturally tend truncated. ? The growth of plants and herbs enhanced through the weeding. ?
Water float field for a long time is not required. ? 40 to 50 percent of the irrigation water is stored. ? There is a small use of electrical power when the irrigation water if needed and there are facilities that use electricity. ? There is a high rate of growth of the roots? A large majority of white roots consume less water. ? Use of mineral soil are better. ? There is a high level of Sprout with crumbs and the heads of grain. ?
Many products generated a large number of crumbs (tillers). Heads of grain (productive tillers) and the grain itself. ? Plants bear unfallen or lie down because of high winds or a storm. ? There is a lot of grain and crop stalks, ie plant residues. Panda nursery young seedlings carefully in the context of soil and ventilated.
Fear not see water in wet soil. Since the number of seedlings will be few in this system of growing rice, you can use a raised garden for growing seedlings. Recommended seeding rate as described above is 3 kg per acre.
• 40 square meters of garden planting in raised is sufficient for one acre.
• Create a garden of minimum 5 cm rise per 1m x 5m, 8 garden that is needed for part of 40m2 (40 square meters).
• Use of natural fertilizer (manure) to the field ripened well be done carefully.
• Do not use additional fertilizer later in the raised garden soil with enough nutrients. If not, put fertilizer to 'DAP' amount of 760 grams per acre (95 grams for each of 5M2 which elevated garden with soil.
• Spread sacks of fertilizer (polyethylene bags) on the garden for softness.
• Fill soil you compromise on these bags for minimum till 4 cm in height.
• Seed preserved and medicine 'Pseudomonas' at a rate of 10 grams per kilogram of seed.
• Use natural fertilizers 200 grams of 'Azophos' per kilo 3 seed.
• Mix 'Pseudomonas' and manure origin 'Azophos' and rice seed using the same combination of rice and water for 24 hours.
• Put the seeds for 24 hours in sisal bags for the purposes of growth. • Panda 375 grams of the seeds sown in every 5 square meters of elevated garden.
• Irrigate water using tin. Water that stands beside the elevated garden can be used.
• Cover garden using easily available raw materials such as coconut shells anywhere coconut, rice stalks and remove three days after planting the seeds sown. Management seedlings
• Pull the seedlings with soil from the garden to its plants it can flourish quickly.
• Disturbance bit of time to pluck up roots will help plants grow very quickly.
• Arrange seedlings in the wooden box and you to transfer up the field when you ascend ascends to make it easier to disperse seedlings. Remember, the nursery can be prepared away from the field.
It may be close to a farmer's house for protection and management. When transferring seedlings field, be planned in small boxes to facilitate transportation. It must not path seedlings over thirty minutes (half an hour) before planting. This method of raising seedlings and transport helps save time, between the garden and the farm. Farm constitutes required
• Synchronize your field will go up shoots well. That is important to be flat.
• powerful database tribulation planted in the field and have a non-synchronized plains are more likely to rot.
• Make small trenches for simplifying waterways.
• Leave measures 25 square centimeters (25cm x 25cm) from the embankment of the plant to another plant. Planting of the square
• You must plant the seedling individually for each embankment.
• Do not get in the pit of the stature of the deep.
• Planting a square of 25 x 25 cm ensures enough space
• In this planting device marking swivel (rolling marker) or ropes checked for planting can be used to obtain measurements appropriate action. Planting a seedling for every embankment has enormous benefits for the plant. Plants tend to have more health for limited competition between plants and a plant in the use of air, light and soil nutrients.
Thus each plant have enormous potential to produce or offset crumbs (tillers). Growing seedlings per square helps to have a chance to channel sufficient tool for weeding plants called kimombo rotary weeder weeder or Paddy machine. You spend weeding machine
• Using machine weeding is one of the most important step in this particular system. Gardening machines used once every ten days from the day of transplant seedlings (a total of four times in the life of paddy fields).
• Three laborers are sufficient to weed an acre at once (for one day).
• The weeds are uprooted and machinery and rot and so that fertilizers.
• Occasionally, the soil is disturbed, which has a beneficial plant. Basically weeding is important and that the farmer should ensure he made it to get high yield and also make for specialized equipment. By this stage the weeds are uprooted and buried in the sand to make it as fertilizer (green manure). Second, each time the device is invoked, the soil is disturbed and transformed, with more air on the sand.
This benefited the air and microbes that are strongly rooted in the soil. The third function of this device is to chop the weed roots of the plants separately. This action ensures grows new roots and a great ability to find food and nutrients from the soil. These three important task of weeding tool is causing more crumbs to offset plants also tend to stem strength to withstand hurricane winds and Irrigation
• Make sure there is no standing water in the field and also be controlled to be in the soil moist or dry conditions.
• Irrigate water to a depth of 2.5 cm after lines of cracks occurring in the soil. It may take seven days after watering until the soil creaks. If so then watering on your farm will be every seven days, until the rice begin bearing which will irrigate the field was just a pool of water when they dried up the field.
• Change turns of wet and glazing to air upwards through the soil to increase root growth and develop the functioning of micro-organisms.
