Agricultural Drone Rice Cultivation Labor-Saving Project: FLIGHT-AG × Rizocare Experiment Progress Report Seedling Growth Status: Good

Hello! This is the FLIGHT-AG division!
This season, we are conducting direct seeding experiments for rice using agricultural drones, FLIGHT-AG, with the cooperation of farmers, JA, agents, and Syngenta in Ibaraki Prefecture.
Today, we would like to report on the progress of the Rizocare XL (from Syngenta) that was sown on May 17.
In this experiment, we have set a relatively high seeding rate for the feed variety "Yume Aoba." Based on the current growth conditions, everything seems to be going well, and the higher seeding rate does not appear to be an issue.
Rizocare is characterized by vigorous early growth, and it seems to be demonstrating that advantage effectively.
There are some areas where the growth is not uniform, but we expect that as tillering progresses, these growth irregularities will gradually become less noticeable. Tillering is the phenomenon where the number of rice stems increases; in areas with high density, tillering is suppressed, while in areas with low density, it becomes more active. This naturally compensates for the overall growth balance.
We plan to continue sharing the progress of the experiment and new discoveries on our blog, so please look forward to it!
