기계수확시 탈립된 종자들이 이듬해 발아 생장하여 휴경조건하에서 수량 및 수량구성 요소에 많은 변이를 보였기에 무경운 직파재배의 가능성을 타진하려 수도의 수량 및 수량구성요소를 조사하였고 또한 잡초종의 피도에 따른 수량변이를 상관계수를 통해 알아보았다. 무경운 무시비 조건에서도 단위면적당 최대 188kg/10a의 수량을 보여 입모확보가 보장된다면 무경운 직파재배는 가능할 것으로 판단되었다. 또한 성공적 무경운 직파를 위해서는 충분한 입모확보, 천이, 두과식물과의 적절한 혼파 초형개발에 관한 연구가 기대된다.
The rice plants (Oryza sativa L.) established from the shattered grains by combine harvesting at the previous year showed great variations of yield and yield components from site to site at the abandoned rice crop field. The cultural condition was very similar to direct seeding under no-tillage system but no cultural practices such as application of fertilizer, weed control, irrigation and drainage had been carried out. The highest yield of 188kg/10a was observed at one of the quadrats randomly located on the field, which showed the possibility of exploitation of no-tillage system. The interrelationship between crop growth and coverage of weed species was measured by calculating the correlation coefficients. The investigations of how to establish sufficient number of seedlings per unit area, plant succession on the abandoned crop field, crop mixture with legume crops, and breeding appropriate plant type of rice for the enhancement of competitive ability would be required for the success of no-tillage system.
