Abstract: | Summary Uptake of mineral nutrients and production of carbohydrates by paddy during the vegetative, the reproductive, and the ripening stage of growth were determined in a pot experiment.From 59 to 84 per cent of the nutrients present in the ripe plants were absorbed between tillering and flowering. More than 90 per cent of the N and K, 80 per cent of the P and Ca, and 65 per cent of the Mg were absorbed prior to flowering, and the remainder after heading.More than 60 per cent of the carbohydrates present in the ripe stage was produced after flowering. |
