Spraying on rice plants is an activity in cultivating rice crops with the purpose to control pests and diseases.

In the spraying rice plant should be done properly and correctly, so that the production can be maximized. Because spraying techniques, the pesticides used and the dose of spraying have a very important role in the successful cultivation of rice crops.

The Right Way to Spray Rice Plant

There are several basic ways and techniques that must be known in the proper spraying of rice plants, among others as follows;

****1.The time of spraying****

The right time to spray the rice plant is when the leaf's mouth is open. Because when the mouth leaves open, the pesticide liquid will be easily absorbed by the plant and into the plant tissue. Thus the pests or diseases that attack the plant will die when the pest feeds on that part of the plant, although the pest is not in place when the spraying is done. The right time to do the spraying of rice plants is the morning until 09:00 AM and afternoon starting from 3.30 Pm to 5.30 PM
Avoid spraying above 9:00 PM to 5:30 Pm, because the leaves will close when the sun is hot and hot weather. At that time span occurs the process of formation of food substances and not the right time to do the spraying.

****2. Pay attention to the weather****

weather factors should also be considered, do the spraying if at that time the weather is sunny. Avoid spraying if the weather is overcast and is expected to rain soon. Spraying can still be done even if the weather is cloudy, but if it is predicted the rain will drop at least 1 hour after spraying. Time 1 hour is enough for the leaves or plants to absorb leaf manure or pesticide fluid.

****3. Distance time to spraying****

the spacing of spraying between previous spraying and future spraying can be done every other day, once every 3 days, once every 5 days or 7 days.

****4. When the rice plants should not be sprayed again****

When the rice plants enter the pollination period, do not do spraying pesticides, especially types of pesticides that are hot and toxic strong. Spraying at the time of pollination can result in drunk rice, hollow. Of course this can lead to losses that are not small because the production is certainly low. If necessary, spraying can be re-done after the pollination process is over 85%

****5. Dose of spraying****

Dosage of pesticide use is dose in making pesticide solution to be sprayed rice crop. Before spraying, make it a habit to always read the instructions listed on the packaging of pesticides. Use the dosage as recommended by the manufacturer of the pesticide product used. Do not reduce or increase the dose of recommended dosage so that the harvest is satisfactory.
