Abstract
This study was conducted to investigate effects of granular silicate fertilizer(GSF) on growth, nutrient uptake and quality rice during cultivation. Then the chemical properties of paddy soil used for the cultivation test were pH 5.9, O.M. $13.7g\;kg^{-1}$, avail. $P_2O_5$ $48.9mg\;kg^{-1}$, and avail. $SiO_2$ $79.8mg\;kg^{-1}$. The amounts of GSF treated in the paddy soil were 0, 76, 185, 229, 413 and $489kg\;10a^{-1}$ for control, S-100(control amounts of soil available $SiO_2$), S-130, S-160, S-190 and for S-210 treatments, respectively. At results of rice growth leaf length and tiller number were more remarkable results at treatments of GSF than control. The leaf length of rice at S-100 treatment was the highest as 99.4 cm and the tiller number was the highest as 18.9 ear number at S-130 treatment. At the results of rice yield parameters, the grain and straw yield of rice were showed that all of the GSF applicated treatments were more predominant level than at the control, especially their levels were the highest values as 841.5 and $815.2kg\;10a^{-1}$ at the S-160 treatment, respectively. Also at the results of quality parameters on rice grain, a perfect kernel in the GSF applicated treatments was more increased than at control, but a broken kernel rate was inversely decreased. In results of these aspects, the chemical properties of white rice and the taste of rice by the Toyo MA-90A(Toyo rice quality taster) instrument, amylose content was the lowest value as 18.7%(generally about 20%) at S-160 treatment. Also, Mg/K ratio and rice taste value were the highest level as 0.58 and 69.1 at the S-190 and S-160 treatments respectively. The harvest yields of rice at S-160 and S-190 treatments from these growth factors were more produced about 8-13% than control. Therefore, the GSF application for rice cultivation from these results should be expected to obtain the positive effects as enhancement of rice harvest yield and improvement of quality on the cooked rice taste. Amount of GSF application could be recommended as around $200mg\;kg^{-1}$ for optimal and economical rice cultivation.
