Hydropic Rice Nursery for Rice Transplanting Using Rice Transplanters
Abstract Rice nursery using dapogs requires a series of media preparation activities involving sieving the soil, mixing with organic fertilizer and rice husk charcoal, which are troublesome for the farmers. Another practical method is to grow the rice seedlings in an hydroponic system.
