Drying rice grain is one of the problems faced during the rainy season. This study aims to obtain information about the height of the tent, the thickness of the appropriate seed layer, and the interaction between the height of the tent and the thickness of the seed layer on the quality of rice seeds. The research method used is a field experiment prepared with a completely randomized block design using a split-plot design. As the main plot is the treatment of the height of the tarpaulin cover are 50, 80, and 110 cm. As a subplot is a thick layer treatment is 5, 7, 9, and 11 cm. Each treatment combination was repeated three times. The results showed that tarpaulin height has a significant effect on the parameters of the maximum growth potency and plant height at week 4. A tent height of 50 cm had the highest maximum growth potential. Layer thickness gave a significant effect on the parameters of the number of tillers at week 4 and plant height at week 4. The number of tillers in the fourth week of treatment with a layer thickness of 7, 9, and 11 cm was not significantly different but was significantly better than the layer thickness of 5 cm. The highest parameter of plant height at week 4 was 7 cm thick. There was an interaction between tarpaulin height and layer thickness on the parameters of the number of tillers at week 6, plant height at week 2 and 6.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
