규산시용 유무에 따라 생산된 미질을 평가하기 위하여 평택통 미사질양토(배수가 약간 불량한 보통답) 조건인 영남농업시험장 동일비료 장기 연용 시험구(29년차)의 비료 3요소구, 3요소+규산시용구, 3요소+퇴비시용구에서 1995년도 생산된 화남벼의 미립에 대한 등숙색택, 미립의 외관 및 미질 관련 특성을 분석 한 결과를 요약하면 다음과 같다. 1. 규산시용구에서는 정조의 백도치가 높고 선황색으로 색도가 높아 등숙색택이 좋아졌으며 반점립과 그을름립비율이 낮아졌다. 2. 규산시용으로 현미 중 피해립, 청미 및 변색립율이 떨어져 완전미율이 6.1∼7.5% 증가되었고 백미 중 완전미율도 1.8∼3.5% 증가되었으며 심ㆍ복백미율도 낮았다. 3. 규산시용으로 아밀로스 함량, 단백질 함량 및 요드정색도는 낮아졌고 아밀로그램의 최고점도, Breakdown및 식미품질분석계에 의한 식미치는 높아져서 식미를 향상시키는 요인으로 작용되었다.
To evaluate the characters related to rice grain quality as affected by silicate application, the ripened color, appearence and physicochemical properties of rice grain which were produced at the silt-loam paddy field of National Yeongnam Agricultural Exeperiment Station with a little poor drainage for trials on long-term effects of continuous application of same fertilizer were analyzed comparing with the NPK fertilizer an the NPK+compost in 1995. The whiteness value and color space value in ripened color of rice hull by silicate application were higher than those in the plots of NPK and NPK+compost, because of low percentage of rusty grain and sooty grain, The percentage of perfect grain in brown rice and in milled rice by the silicate application increased by 6.1~7.5% and by 1.8~3.5% respectively, as compared with the NPK application and white core and white belly of milled rice were decreased, The amylose content, protein content and starch-iodine blue value of milled rice by silicate application were lower than those in the plots of NPK and NPK+compost, while the peak point and breakdown viscosity of gelatinized rice flour on amylograph, and tastes value evaluated as a indicater of pannel test by nireco tester were higher. By silicate application these factors could be affected toward better in eating quality,
