  • whenever i look on these videos they have the most beautiful backround.. mountains xD

  • In planting rice we don't need to prepare dapog or seedbed anymore. No more transplanting of seedlings. We need only to soaked our rice seeds for 24-48 hours in order for the rice seeds to germinate and inoculate with concentrated endomychorrhiza with complex biostimulants. Using a 50 cm x 50 cm markers, marked the moist rice field (not saturated/flooded) and drop in the square grid one germinated seed. In this technique no seedling injuries or transplant shock anymore. Expect 23 tons/ha yield!

  • Endomycorrhiza is a detoxifier of polluted and contaminated soils, it has chelating properties, it produces enzymes to release all bound nutrients, it produces antibiotics to kill all soil borne plant pathogens, it has vesicles to store all absorbed water and nutrients for the use of its host plants. It communicate with its host plants to produce enzymes that will act as insect repellent. Just read all about mycorrhiza for additional info. This is all what we need to revive our dead soils.

  • If we inoculate our germinated rice seeds with concentrated endomycorrhiza we don't need to use synthetic fertilizers and chemical pesticides anymore. Endomycorrhiza will help rice plant capture all the 16 macro and micro nutrients from the air, water and the surrounding soils to make our rice plant healthy and produce high yield. Fungal roots is an extension of rice roots system that can extend its reach 1 meter beyond the root tips of rice roots system.

  • More with less. At 50 cm x 50 cm distance per hill single seed we need only 1 kg of seeds per hectare funny but true. Look there are 40,000 seeds in one kilo rice seeds or 1,000 seeds per 25 grams. At 50 cm x 50 cm distance there are 4 seeds in 1 sqm. 1 ha has 10,000 sqm x 4 seeds/ sqm = 40,000 seeds. Rice is a grass, it is not an aquatic plant so it can be grown just like any other plants not in a flooded condition. 1st we save on seeds, now we save on water. Use only endomycorrhiza.

  • Yes

  • is this considered as timelapse, when its only pictures taken each season or something and then putting it like a slideshow....?

  • @orangebiggy apparently roughly 1 plant yields 60g rice (averagely....

  • How many plants does it take to grow 1 pound of rice?

  • @MannyHMo handled like a true champion, good work. Finally someone actually adds an interesting addition to a video.

    @sjz881 actually mate he doesn't sound like a moron, rather your attack just proves how your most likely limited intellectual capacity is unable of processing any youtube comment beyond the usual blabber.
