This study investigates percolation and seepage through the bunds of flat and terraced paddies. Field experiments were conducted in Hsin-Pu of Hsin-Chu County, Taiwan, to measure the soil water content of various types of bund. Measurements revealed that the soil was unsaturated along the sloped surface of the terrace. Experimental results also indicated that seepage face flow did not develop e...

Dissimilatory Fe(III) reduction is a universal process with irreplaceable biological and environmental importance in anoxic environments. Our knowledge about Fe(III) reduction predominantly comes from pure cultures of dissimilatory Fe(III) reducing bacteria (DFRB). The objective of this study was to compare the effects of glucose and a selection of short organic acids (citrate, succinate, pyruv...

The study of greenhouse gas emissions has become a global focus, but few studies have considered saline-alkali paddy fields. Gas samples and saline-alkali soil samples were collected during the green, tillering, booting, heading and grain filling stages. The emission fluxes of CO2, CH4, and N2O as well as the pH, soil soluble salt, available nitrogen, and soil organic carbon contents were detec...

In an agriculture field paddy is one of the major staple foods in the Asian countries like China, India, Indonesia, and Bangladesh etc. But paddy disease likes a Blast; Bacterial Leaf Blight; Rice tungro etc. stops the growth of the paddy trees. If the diseases are not detected at an early possible stage then there is a decrease in the production of paddy. In this paper a noble methodology i.e....
