Article Synopsis
- - Rice is a crucial food source for over half the global population, especially in developing countries where it plays a significant role in daily nutrition.
- - Wood vinegar, a natural growth promoter derived from biomass pyrolysis, enhances rice growth, photosynthesis, and stress tolerance, although its best application timing is still not well understood.
- - The study found that applying wood vinegar during specific growth stages (tillering, jointing, and flowering) significantly increased rice yield by up to 32.4%, improved quality by reducing grain chalkiness, and ultimately supports more sustainable agricultural practices.
