Abstract:<p>Silicon (Si) is a beneficial element for rice plants. However, evaluating the Si availability status of paddy soil is rarely done. This study aimed to investigate the Si availability for plant (Si<sub>AP</sub>), spatial distribution, Si<sub>AP</sub> correlations with some soil properties and the effect of Si<sub>AP</sub> status on the rice yield. This study used a survey method to collect paddy soil and water sample. The pot experiment method was used to evaluate pa… Show more
