e0“rice crop sown sparsely seemed to be able to produce higher yield, even when it transplanted later than usual culture method. But this trend might not be always observed because the different result would be obtained under different weather”

Other claims from this paper (13)
- Intervention effect Sparsely sown rice seedlings produced more than thirty tillers by transplanting.
- Intervention effect Sparsely sown rice had high yield under late transplanting.
- Intervention effect Densely sown rice had no tillers at transplanting.
- Intervention effect Densely sown rice yielded about half the usual culture yield.
- Observation After transplanting, sparse plot rice continued some tillering.
- Observation After transplanting, dense plot rice developed many new tillers at upper stem nodes.
- Intervention effect Sparsely sown seedlings produced more tillers and ears.
- Mechanism Early lower stem tillering led to earlier heading.
- Mechanism Early heading resulted in heavier grain weight.
- Mechanism Narrow seedbed spacing seriously inhibited tillering.
- Intervention effect Dense sowing produced fewer tillers and stems than other plots.
- Mechanism Delayed tillering delayed heading.
- Mechanism Delayed heading resulted in light grains.
