- Опубликовано: 27 авг 2024
- Learn about our rice plants growth stages through the first 3 weeks after planting. Our 2018 rice crop was seeded in the month of May (between the 6th and 26th) after a late start due to spring California rains.
It's a great feeling to have all the tractor work completed and all our rice fields planted. I hope to give you a good idea of how rice is grown in California with this video.

Thanks dude. planting my rice today in south Portugal. super excited.
Every year I enjoy rice planting season seeing the farmers get there field's ready. This year I missed it. (I travel the I-5 corridor 2x week) Thx for showing it. As always I enjoy for educational video's
Thank you for Rice farming TV...Rice feeding millions of people and rice weed feed animals and reuse for nutritional mean. This is an excellent Rice farming TV. No slave labors needs. Looking for your videos, Rice making flowers towards young seeding to mature crop
to harvest.
Very good
It is so nice
While I do not want to grow rice, I have become very interested in how rice grows. I have developed an interest in tertiums and I have added springtails to prevent mold. Springtails eat rice, so I placed a few in the jar. I noticed they started sprouting; this was unexpected. Your video was very informative and I can't wait to see what happens. Thank you.
This was informative. Can you continue it's life cycle? And show how it's harvested??
Thanks Matt. A very interesting video showing the rice plant development. I hope everything goes well for you and your crop between now and harvest time in the fall. The images of the green fields and the blue sky were great. My best to you and your family. Until next time. Cheers my friend :- )
It was awesome, u are truely surving food to some many people
Great 'white board' presentation-this should be a part of every grade school science class. Forward this to some teachers...So it sounds like organic farmers require 5x the amount of water to suppress weeds? Wow!
Thank you, JB! Yeah, the organic boys need a ton more water upfront for their weed control. But then they drop the water completely and pretty much dry out the ground so that it cracks to kill mid-season weeds. So they save on water to a degree there. But that stress on the plant by practically drowning it and then putting the field in a drought situation leads to a loss of rice (and is by no means 100% affective against the weeds).
-M.
Good idea Juan, about the school science classes. And about the water for the organic farmer - Another Wow here. I had no idea Seems like it's all a bit stressful for the plants. I wonder if there are other varieties of rice that do better in those conditions. What about that, Matt? Any ideas? Thanks guys!
I liked seeing all of the growth stages all in one place. Great visuals
Thanks Matt.
You're welcome, Tim. Sorry to leave your question hanging for a week. Thanks for your good questions.
-M.
hai like your vidoes iam for suriname not far brazel
Nice...
Hi man. I don't know if you remember me. I'm that Agronomy student from colombia that time ago commented your shoveling video. I admire you for making farming something cool with your great videos. I'd like here in colombia farmers were that cool and modern. Best regards. Rafael
Hi Rafael, yeah I remember you. I don't get many Colombian Agronomy students in the comment section. I appreciate your message. Thank you! Are you doing much (or any) work in rice fields down there right now?

Im sure his farms are fruitful. 😸🐑🐯
your video is very informative, i grow rice in Thailand, at first i have no idea how to germinate the seeds when watching your video this is giving me a very broad information of how to, some farmers in Thailand are not real farmers giving me wrong information so i subscribe to your channel for more information.
can you go more in depth on how they are not real farmers
hello
Nice
Very interesting to see how the plants are doing in their first few weeks. I will definitely be interested in seeing how the plants are growing along the entire life span. I guess that's the botanist in me. :-D Your videos are very informative but still fun. Thanks for the great videos.
You are truly awesome and generous for sharing such a valuable information ^^
Matthew, thank you for the detailed answer! 1st year of trying to grow rice in small, portable containers... we'll see how it turns out.
Best of luck with your rice crop Tommy. Keep those portable containers in the sun! I'd love to see some photos of their progress.
-M.
Will do.
good job...matt..
Thank you, Balaji!
-M.
Very informative, Thank You.
You're welcome. I'm glad you enjoyed and thanks for the message!
-M.
Another good video
Thank you very much, Chuck!
-M.
Thanks Matt. You always do a good j0ob of explaining and educating us on how to grow rice. This video was no exception interesting to see the different stages of growth in the rice plant. Looking forward to next week's video. Have a great week. God Bless!!!
Got my fix of rice framing for the weekend. It grows about as fast as corn.
Interesting! Glad I could provide you with your fix of rice this weekend, Matt. Happy to hear from you.
-M.
I had watched your each and every video at least twice and I love your harvesting video
Wow Prateek, I'll definitely make more videos. It's hard for me to do more than 1 video a week (max) because of work farming and family. But I still am having fun doing it and constantly get positive reinforcement from people like you and your message. Thank you!
-M.
I watch your videos and learn. I eat rice and remember big red grows it. Thanks. Growing hot peppers and tomatoes. From one farmer to another
Thanks D.W.! I love the farming connection. This is one of the strong ideas that motivated me to start Rice Farming TV...helping those who enjoy eating rice a visual connection and deeper understanding of what it takes to grow rice. You embody this goal well and thank you for sharing.
-M.
Another great video. In the opening shots from the drone it looked like a rice field that was not worked this year. Would you leave a rice field follow?
Hi Matt I have seen representations of planting rice in Asia and they seem to be planting rice plants not rice seeds. My family used to farm almonds in California so I have some familiarity with farming but I don't understand the difference. I'm loving your videos and thrilled that I found you through Derek of Tillamook Dairy farming
That was a quick episode Matthew. But very interesting to observe how rapidly a rice plant grows from seed on upward. Could there be future versions of the Growth Rate of a 2018 Rice Plant? (As your time permits) -Bob
Hi Bob, I hope it wasn't too quick and left tons of questions on the table by the omission of details. I like to keep them short but also to instigate conversation. I think there very well could be future versions of the growth rate. Perhaps when the plant starts "heading out" or starting the reproductive phase and we can actually see the new seeds forming and filling. Great idea, Bob! Thanks for the message and take care.
-M.
I would say that you have the timing set just about right Matthew! A good amount of information tightly packaged into a few moments of your days that are thoughtfully put on display! Best part is the anticipation building for additional videos as the season evolves. Hope your water supply is secure for the growing season ahead. -Bob
Sir, I'm curious to know about how the spraying of sodium chloride effect the rice plant. Most of the local farmers used common salt solution to kill weeds.
I see fallow rice fields - is the irrigation water sold, or just not needed or paid for?
Are you part of a rice co-op & how does that work?
Are there limits on how much you can grow, aside from water? I mean government, co-op's...
How do they wet the rice seed before planting?
Some grocery stores here don't stock California rice; it's from Louisiana... Thanks a lot.
I enjoy your videos & learning. Thanks from a Biggs resident!
Amazing video. It’s amazing how fast this plant grows
Dear Rice Farming,
I growing rice in fodder system, can I apply NPK fertizer to my rice fodder in day 2-3-4th ?
to let my rice leaf grow more longer
Thanks

From Cambodia
How interesting. Fascinating, in fact, to see the stages. Just curious Matt, do you devote a portion of your crop to seed or go to outside scources.
Thanks Michael, we sell 100% of our crop to mills as dedicated food products for end consumers. There are rice seed farmers who dedicate 100% of their seed crop to farmers like me. They are fellow California growers and could farm seed right next door.
-Matthew
Now I feel want to grow rice on my lawn!
Very good video about the development of rice plants, do you know how many you have on average per square meter? ... Greetings from Chile
Came here to look up how my aquaponic rice is doing for a research project. I have my rice seeds in rock wool with water up to the level of the seed and a 300watt growlight a foot above the seeds.
After 21 days mine looks like your 19 days and only 7 inches tall.
Wow! Interesting, Aidan. Are you documenting the grow-op anywhere? What’s the temperature there in the green house? Rice likes heat. Also, what’s the variety? I’m trying to figure out why it’s shorter.
-Matthew
@@Ricefarmingtv im currently documenting it on a mars colonization facebook groups "eptle" and "i am going to mars." Im also sharing my information with a space habitat researcher at North Dakota University. im doing a preliminary run of a new unconventional type of aquaponics which wouldnt lend itself to making a video about until i work the kinks out, however, once i get it all figured out ill probably post something on youtube about it for my second run as this first run is turning out to be quite the learning experience.
As far as green house temps. Its actually set up in my bedroom, and its only 8 rice plants for now, a cactus, and a container planted dwarf kumquat tree. My room temperature is between 60 at night at 70 during the day, however with the 300watt grow light on for 12 hours its 80+ in the tank during the day from 7am to 7pm.
I think the reason why it is so short is for a couple reasons. The first is that until last week i didnt have a cover over the aquaponics water, so algae was free to grow, and the algae seemed to love to stick to the roots which was unsettling. Perhaps rice buries its roots to protect it from algae as opposed to true aquatic plants, however, it may not engage in chemical warfare against competitors as true terrestrial plants do since farmers have been using water to drown its competitors for millenia.
Second, is that i manually cycle the water between my rice containers instead of a continuous flow as the nature of the experiment is to determine how much rice i can grow using 500mL when the fish are fed 0.02g algae rounds daily. I cycle it once a week, when i notice an obvious nutrient loss, or when 250ml of water has been consumed bt the plants whichever happens first. Unfortunately until next week when i calibrate my ammonia probeware i dont have an effective way of determining how much nutrients are being supplied to the plants as for some reason both the pH and conductivity of the water increases as the plants consume the nutrients rather than it decrease as one would expect. So i suspect that there have been a couple days when they were actually starving until i manually cycled the water again. I plan to order a nitrate sensor as well once funds are available. Aquatic plants prefer ammonia, but terrestrial plants prefer nitrate. It will be interesting to see which the rice prefers.
The third issue is that im having a mold problem. I double planted each planting basket in case things failed to germinate and i only had as expected i only had a 50% germination rate. I suspect the failed seeds started decomposing and encouraged mold growth. Unfortunately, i didnt have a way to get the failed seeds out of the rock wool. Perhaps the rock wool itself also allows mold to take hold. I am not satisfied with the rock wool as a medium for both of those reasons. Im also annoyed at this discovery as once im done i cant reuse the rockwool as i have decomposing matter in it which would lead to more mold for the second generation.
After that im having a puzzling issue. I have two sets of containers one set with only one plant per 500ml of water and another set with three plants per 500ml of water. In the set of three plants per 500ml container of water in each of my duplicates there is a dominant plant, a medium growth plant and a stunted plant. I had to remove the stunted plants from the experiment as i didnt want them dying and increase a mold problem. However, even so, the now two plant containers are actually maturing taller than the single plant containers. This makes me suspect there is a synergistic effect the plants have or the natural fungi in the ground may allow nutrients to distribute nutrients more evenly from plant to plant to reduce same-species competition or they are competing better against the algae than the single plant containers. I covered the base of the plants to stunt algae growth last week but it persists, however thats okay because i can dry out the algae and turn it into fish flakes as a byproduct.
One prototype plant that became infested with mold, i submersed in about 6 inches of water and it grew rapidly out of the water til it protuded 4inches out of the water in a single day and is now as tall as my tallest plants which supports what you are saying about the plants trying to stretch out of the water. I dont know if it has a mold issue any longer as it seems to be growing strong and very green now.
The smaller plants are growing all the tillers, but the leaves are not growing very long. About 4-5 inches compared to 7 inches for the medium growing plants and 9 inches for the taller ones at 21 days.
As for the seeds. I just got them from the bulk brown rice bin at my local whole foods, so the variety is essentially unknown and unknown in age. When and if i get to harvest this rice. The next batch i will have a more standardized approach. I will also grow lentils at some point as well.
Thank you for the information
You're welcome Patan!

thanks for adding the celcius unit
You’re welcome, Dalograth. I appreciate you taking the time to drop a message. Take care!
-Matthew
Agronomy...I love it!
Like your simple presentation, the field looks same as my country, though there are differences.
Great video
You should be a teacher..
What is the method of paddy cultivation soil method to harvesting please learn me🙏
Do you propagate your own seed from year to year or do you buy seed from another source for each year's planting? Perhaps there is a video in the answer?
Great videos really interesting thanks for making them. I live in the garden state but we don't grow rice
Thanks for the message, Doug and I'm sure happy to hear that you found this episode interesting. Please keep in touch.
-Matthew
Do you change the water depth for specific growth phases? How deep is the water in your fields?
Hi Terosh, yes we do keep the water at different depths during the growth phase. When we seed the water is about 2" deep. We let that sag down during the first couple weeks so the ground is just saturated. We'll slowly bring the water back up to 2" during the 3rd week only to let it sag back down to saturation during mid-season pest management spray applications. Then it's back up to 2" until the reproductive phase (week 5 or 6) when we raise the level to 4-6" deep until we drain for harvest.
-M.
I was watching some of the water management videos done by Japanese farmers. It appears that they let the field dry out after tillering. They say that this provides benefits to the roots and overall growth of the rice. Has your research shown that this provides any benefit?
Hi Matthew thank you for another well done video. On episode 62 it looked like you were on the market for a Lexion combine. Did you get one?
❤️❤️👍👍
Love the content and composition of the videos. How does the seeding of a field with approximately 165 lbs per acre compare in harvest yield to seeding more than that amount? In an earlier episode you stated that another farmer achieved approximately 12k lb yield per ache. What did he do differently to achieve the higher yield?
some people say that fertilizer causes water to run through the soil like through a sieve. How you manage that the water stays twenty inches deep?
I have an avocado grove and I am familar with many of the problems with irrigation. You mentioned that you flooded the rice field to 2 inches. This would require an extremely level field. Did you use some kind of laser leveler to get the field that level.
Second the daily evaporation here in around .25 inches/day. I suspect the evaporation rate would be greater, as you are located in the Central Valley. If no water is added to the field, in 8 days the field would be dry. How do you key the 2 inch level constant?
What is your rate of monitoring the fields?
Thanks.
I appreciate the celcius unit!
I got you covered, Joakim. Thanks for the message.
-Matthew
Who produces your video segments? Great flow and transitions.
Wow! Thanks man. I do it all myself.
-Matthew
Hi Matthew! Your videos are really interesting! I'm a rice farmer from Greece. Sacramento has a Mediterranean climate like ours. The plants have the same progress like these here. I would like to ask about weed controlling. Thanks !
How u can get water ?
Hello! Do you process rice seeds before sowing?
I am 21 and I am just now starting out rice farm and I would like to talk to you about some poblems I am having with rice
Hi Beth, where are you growing rice and what problems have you encountered?
-Matthew
Hi my name is Abdul from Nigeria I want to be a rice farm can you help me through plsssss thanks
Trying to sprout rice but 5 days later nothing 🤔
dam that's fast
We plant rice in guyana alot differnet than u guys in us
Hi Max! Do you you transplant?
-M.
Quick question, does one rice seed make only one rice reed, or do multiple reeds split off?
Multiple...
Day 1 dt 5/26/18; Day 21 dt 5/6/18. Didn't understand it.
does someone know how many centimeters the rice grows per day? ain't have any idea. Thanks in advance
Can't you PEP up this piece with an into by Astrud Gilberto ??? maybe "Sooo Nice" or Agua de beber ?? Maybe in the hot poetic sun you can rhyme "Arroz de mi Vida" ??
Careful with that "peace out" the truly Grateful are Dead
Great idea Steve. May have to pay royalties to use the song or risk RUclips taking it down on copyright violation.
-M.
Okay let's go with "Mi Vida de Arroz"
Hi, where can I buy seeds?
So, where is the actual rice on the ready-to-harvest plant?
Where do I find the English translation?? I see all these comments in English... Confused 😕
Do y’all grow any ricetec varieties in California?
No BMO, all our varieties are pure-lines (I believe) that have been breed by the Rice Experiment Station out of Biggs, California. Here's the episode I did on their field day:

Rice Farming TV Ahh I gotcha, I live in south Texas. I grow my own rice but also work on another farm that farms about 500 acres worth. I farm about 20 miles from the Ricetec HQ in Alvin, TX. Most everyone down in South Texas grows Ricetec varieties.
Man, I may have driven right past your place during our trip this March to South Texas. We visited the LG and Linda Raun Ranch, Rice Belt Warehouse and RiceTec around there. Do you know Scott Savage? Big organic farmer down around you. He a fellow classmate of mine in the Rice Leadership Development Program.
-M.
Rice Farming TV That name sounds very familiar but yes, lots of rice grown around here!
Hlo please make more vlog
Okay, Prateek! Have you seen my past episodes? I've got 71 different videos now. Thanks for the encouragement. Take care!
-Matthew.
Rice Farming TV Sometimes, just one video a week is not enough for us! But I know you have a busy schedule. Keep them coming!
Take a look at the rice seed being pre treated with nitrogen fixing bacteria
how do you do it Stephen? You add it during the rice soaking before seeding?
that's my understanding .. you might google it
Can processed rice grow?
Please tell me shall we delay reproductive stage in paddy
So I can grow the rice that you buy at the grocery store
Why don't USA growers plant rice like people in japan do with the transplants?
Great question Miss O.P.! That would just be too slow and labor intensive. We aerial seed by plane. We need to seed 1,600 acres fast. Here's how that looks:
ruclips.net/video/X94F_spmZzU/видео.html
-Matthew
In China (don't know if Japan is the same reason) they do transplanting because they grow barley in the winter, in the same field of rice. So, to avoid the late seeding of the rice they do transplant it, in order to keep the balance between the two crop cycles! Hope I could explain my self.
Oh Lopo, that is very very interesting. I need to look more into that. Thank you for your answer.
-Matthew
Can You explain rice plant give us how much oxygen in a day??? I'm waiting for you response
3:27
Are you doing organic farming dude?
STRAIGHT NITROGEN??😲😲😲😁😁
You get good results but i would think it would burn your roots....
Bars
100% nitrogen is meaningless.
Nice
Thank you for the information
You’re welcome, Wafry! Glad you enjoyed.
