Translocation of Soil Arsenic towards Accumulation in Rice: Magnitude of Water Management to Minimize Health Risk

Globally, the risk of arsenic (As) contamination in soil and rice is well documented across globe. In Bangladesh, drinking water are two major exposure pathways As to humans. Therefore, efficiency recent technologies reduce associated human health risks still need be deeply investigated. this direction, a pot experiment was performed investigate impact agronomic irrigation management on (cv. BRRI dhan28) growth, yield, accumulation, finally, humans from consuming rice. Treatment combinations were made with three levels (0, 20, 40 mg kg−1) having procedures, including alternate wetting drying (AWD) traditional continuous flooding (CF). According findings, pollution lowered yield contributing features panicle length, filled grains per panicle, sterile 1000-grain weight, grain straw yield. AWD significantly improved growth performance productivity Grain increased by 13% compared CF. Rice concentrations 0.56 kg−1 15.10 kg−1, respectively, CF management. treatment reduced contents 16% 28%, respectively. Increased grain, straw, total uptake noticed higher concentrations. The study also found that rising raised non-carcinogenic (HQ > 1) carcinogenic (CR 1.010–4) while Thus, farming using could viable long-term solution for reducing hazards.
