| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
It is important to stabilize and increase the rice production in tropical regions for world food security. We studied available silica management of lowland paddy fields as a feasible measure of disease and pest control and improvement of water use efficiency in tropical regions. In Indonesia, blast disease has occurred even though the soil available silica level is beyond the recommendation of International Rice Research Institute. The blast disease could be reduced by silica fertilizer application in our field experiment. Soil available silica levels in newly developed lowland paddy fields in Nigeria was about half of the Asia. It was expected that it could be lowered through intensive rice production. On silica supply, we investigated silica dynamics in a rice cultivating watershed and also showed possible use of industrial residual products containing silica and plant materials such as cacao and bamboo leaves as silica amendments available for local farmers.
