Abstract

A water management study was conducted in
one irrigation sloping system, in order to know its effect on
the electric conductivity of soil saturation extract and rice yield.
It was performed at Cubanacán seed farm, pertaining to �??Los
Palacios�?� Rice Agroindustrial Complex, for three poorly rainy
and three rainy seasons from 2000 to 2002. Results showed a
significant crop yield reduction and increased electric
conductivity of soil saturation extract when irrigation was
applied on sloping terraces. Significant differences were
recorded between the first two terraces and the last one.
