The impact of watering schedules and soil moisture management on late-sown rice varieties' development and harvest is explored in this study. The research in a controlled experimental setting aims to find the ideal moisture levels for increasing rice output by evaluating different irrigation schedules. The findings show that the growth parameters and yield are significantly affected by the time of irrigation and the soil's moisture. In order to cultivate rice sustainably, this study suggests irrigation strategies that increase crop output while decreasing water use.
This research shows that soil moisture control and irrigation timing are two of the most essential factors in improving the development and harvest of late-sown rice cultivars. The most successful tactics for optimizing production and water usage efficiency are watering at 50% soil moisture degradation (SMD) and alternating wet and dry methods (AWD). In light of these results, farmers and politicians may better devise environmentally friendly irrigation strategies to combat climate change and water shortage.
