Introduction to the hybrid single-season rice variety II You 93
Characteristics: This variety is a three-line late-maturing hybrid mid-season rice. In 2004, it participated in the Hunan Province super rice regional trial. The whole growth period is 136.2 days, 6 days less than the control Liangyou Peijiu and 2 days less than Shanyou 63. Plant height is about 115 cm, with a plant type that is moderately compact, and strong fertilizer tolerance and lodging resistance. Tillering ability is medium, and it has good luxuriance, uniform heading, and good color retention at the late stage. Generally, there are 164,300 effective panicles per mu, 172.3 total grains per panicle, about 80% seed setting rate, and 1,000-grain weight of 27.6 g.
Cultivation points: When cultivated as mid-season rice in western Hunan, sowing is generally around April 20, with a sowing rate of 10 kg per mu in the seedling field. At sowing, mix 2 g of paclobutrazol per kg of seed. For ordinary water-raised seedlings, transplant when there are about 5 leaves. The transplanting density is 6 x 7 cun, with 2 grain seedlings per hill. In the early stage, alternate wetting and drying to promote tillering, and drain and sun the field in time after transplanting; in the late stage, irrigate moistly, and avoid cutting off water too early to prevent premature senescence and effects on grain quality. Persist in soaking seeds with strong chlorine essence, and during the field period, according to disease and pest forecasts, apply pesticides in time to control pests and diseases such as the striped stem borer, rice leaf roller, rice planthopper, rice blast, and sheath blight.
