Climate changes, rising warmth, drought, and CO2, are now seriously influencing agriculture. In this study, four separate greenhouses (labeled GH1, GH2, GH3, and GH4) were built with plastic roofs and walls, except GH1, which had three walls with mesh to evaluate the impact of temperature stress on growth, biomass, and yield of rice variety IR50404 under different temperature regimes. The control treatment group was grown ambient, next to these greenhouses. GH1, GH2, GH3, and GH4’s temperatures were from 0.9 oC to 3.1 oC higher than the ambient (as control). Carbon dioxide concentrations in GH2, GH3, and GH4 were recorded higher than the ambient, from 34.1 ppm to 48.2 ppm. Total vegetative dry matter was reduced from 15.9% to 20.5%, while grain yield declined from 20.8% to 24.6% when the mean temperature increased from 2.9 oC to 3.1 oC. High temperature or a combination of high-temperature stress with elevated CO2 concentration reduced the grain yield and total vegetative dry matter.
Rice is the essential food crop of An Giang Province. Vietnam and the whole world are facing several problems hindering climate change, such as increased temperature and CO2 concentration that many manufacturers’ companies and managers need to estimate output to make production plans or adjust policies. In this study, the model known as SIMPLE was applied to simulate the biomass and yield of rice in 2 crop seasons Autumn - Winter 2020 (AW) and Winter - Spring 2020 - 2021 (WS), in Cho Moi district, An Giang province, Vietnam (10° 23' 47"N, 105° 27' 41"E) and analyzed the effects of climate variabilities and scenarios on simulation results. Heat stress showed a relatively negative impact on the growth and development of rice in AW more seriously than WS due to climate variabilities. Climate change scenario RCP8.5 (RCP - Representative Concentration Pathway) has predicted that atmosphere temperature may increase above 4 °C and CO2 concentration to reach 900 ppm by the end of the 21st century. As a result, from the model, for every 100 ppm CO2 concentration increase, the cumulative rice biomass increased by 8 and 10 % in AW and WS, respectively. Moreover, conditions assumed from the model that increased 5 °C caused a decrease in cumulative biomass up to 7.2 % in AW season compared to 3.1 % in WS season. However, with responses of 5 °C increasing in the model, rice yield decreased relatively rapidly from 8.5 % in AW and 7 % WS.
HIGHLIGHTS
The model known as SIMPLE has been used in this study
RMSE of our model differs from the observed yield from 4.2 % (Winter-Spring crop-WS) to 5.5 % (Autumn-Winter crop-AW)
For every 100-ppm CO2 concentration increased, the cumulative rice biomass increased by 8 and 10 % in AW and WS, respectively
Increasing 5 °C, rice yield decreased 8.5 % in AW and 7 % WS
Sensitivity analysis showed that RUE (Radiation Use Efficiency) has the most influencing factor on rice yield
