| Abstract | ||||
| During the last decade, the Agric. Minster of Egypt gave a great deal of attention to planting rice by drilling machine. Further, increase in rice production by increasing the yield per unit area is required to increase the drilling intensity, which it may be realized by band sowing rice. The objective of this study is to evaluate two sowing methods and it's interaction between the primary and secondary tillage treatments. Using the band sowing, as new method of rice planting has rio significant effect on the yield as compared with the common mechanical sowing, although the first recorded the better percentage distribution of seeding per area. The effect of secondary tillage system (disc harrow two strips followed with rotary-rd-r") at the moldboard "m" or dick plow "dp" during band sowing "S2" recorded slightly increase, in general. compared with the common mechanical method "Sr". On the other hand the good yield may be due to good soil surface roughness, good pulverization suitable reduction conditions, good es~lishments and distributions of roots and also good weed control which is affected by good pulverization and plowing depth. | ||||
