 Welcome. Welcome to day 29 of the agronomy challenge. It's now 29 days since we transplanted. We're here on January the 18th, and the main task today is top dressing. We're going to be applying urea fertilizer at a rate of 45, 180 kilograms to the hectare. No, 100 kilograms to the hectare. So 29 days after transplanting, it's on the early side of the typical window for top dressing, but it's what the nutrient manager program is suggesting we do, particularly with a hybrid. Now let's go and look at the crop as it stands after 29 days. Now what we see here is the crop is fairly well established. There's the odd section of the field that doesn't look so good, but mostly it's quite uniform. In fact, if we hark back to 12 months ago, it's a lot more uniform than 12 months ago. We don't really have any problems. There are very few weeds to be had. The pre-emergent herbicide is still functioning quite well. There's the odd small weed coming up, so I suspect we'll have one more herbicide application in a few weeks. What worries me most is the prevailing conditions. It's quite cool. It's been cool and wet for a good 10 days now. It's somewhat typical of last season. The solar radiation is quite limited. I almost need to jump it today, which is quite unusual for the Philippines. What worries me most is with the cool conditions, we already have quite a wide row spacing with the rice. It's generally accepted here in the tropics that you should have a row spacing of 20 or at most 25 cm, and here we are at a 30 cm row spacing, which is wider than what we want. But with a mechanical transplanter, we had no choice. But now we have a wide row spacing. The plants are spaced fairly wide apart. They want solar radiation to grow for the canopy to spread and to get their photosynthetic process going, and we're not really getting it at the moment. And that has me worried to a degree. Then again, worrying won't change the weather. So the one thing we can do is apply nitrogen fertilizer a little bit sooner rather than later, so that when we do get some solar radiation, it's got thorough nutrition in which to take advantage of that solar radiation. So we'll be top dressing our 100 kg to the hectare of Urea this morning and applying water straight thereafter. The field is mud. It's been mud for the last two days, so it's starting to dry and crack a little, so it's ideal for a fertilizer application.
