    PULLING AND TRANSPLANTING

    OF SEEDLINGS/DIRECT SEEDING
    WHAT IS THIS LESSON ABOUT?
    Just like any other crop, raising rice
    seedlings needs extra care during
    planting and transplanting. This lesson
    discusses the steps in pulling
    seedlings, the system of transplanting,
    and direct seeding.
    Proper Way of Pulling Seedlings
    Hand pulling of seedlings Pulling seedlings with the use of scythe
    Procedure
    1. Irrigate the seedbed overnight to a depth of at least 3-5
    centimeters to soften the soil and facilitate pulling of
    seedlings.
    2. Hold the seedlings close to the base and gently pull them.
    3. Another method is to use a scythe to cut through the soil
    half inch below the stem, This method is faster, and avoids
    stress and damage to the stem while ensuring that
    adequate roots of the seedlings are retained.
    4. Bundle them in any convenient size for ease of handling.
    Proper Transplanting of Seedlings
    Right after the final harrowing, level the field using a
    wooden plank attached to a harrow. Then allow the
    mud to subside. With the aid of a wooden planting
    guide prepare lines by pulling on the leveled field.
    These lines will serve as guides in transplanting at a
    uniform p distance of planting. An example is 20 cm x
    20 cm or any desired distance depending on the
    variety. This is to allow the plant to attain its
    maximum tillering and it also facilitates weed control
    later, using a rotary weeder.
    Straight row planting

    1. Seedlings are transplanted in straight rows


    where definite spacing is maintained
    between plants.
    2. Straight row planting enhances the
    attainment of an optimum plant population
    and it facilitates the application of fertilizer
    and weeding operations using a rotary
    weeder.
