15 Conclusion 1. Bsed on 8-seson (4-yers) continuous AWD cultivtion dt, AWD does not significntly ffect GY in ut cn significntly ffect GY in depending on the soil wter potentil threshold used.. In oth nd, shifting from trditionl continuously flooded irrigted rice to AWD down to - 20 kp does not significntly reduce GY.. Depending on the wether, AWD down to -70 my led to yield penlty. 2. AWD -20 cn sve 23-32% irrigtion wter per seson while AWD -70 cn sve 30-45% ongeles_sept2010

16 3. AWD cn mximize use of rinfll, increse productivity of irrigtion wter input, nd offer opportunities to conserve wter resource for future use. 4. The timing of tillge (45-48 DBT or DBT) does not ffect GY. 5. GY with strw incorportion ws generlly higher thn without strw. 6. Recommended N (fixed dose nd timing of ppliction) nd LCC-se N mngement re oth chievle nd effective in incresing grin yields with AWD. 7. Apprently, no tillge, strw, nd N-mngement chnge is necessry when shifting from continuously flooded to AWD irrigtion mngement. ongeles_sept2010
