About this title

Synopsis

Rice (Oryza Spp.) seeds exhibit dormancy traits that need to be broken before sowing. Several methods have been used for this purpose including the use of temperature. Identifying the right temperature that produces the best results has been a challenge. The Book provides information based on a research conducted on the use of temperature in the breaking of dormancy in rice and the subsequent performance of the rice on the field. Findings in the book reveal the temperatures that produce the best results in the performance of the rice on the field after planting. It is a guide to rice farmers as well as crop scientists and researchers. It is a Must-read!
