AbstractTransfer factors of iodine from soil to rice were obtained by laboratory experiments using 125I tracer. Two typical soil types in Japan, Andosol and Gray lowland soil, were used. The transfer factor (TF) is defined as ’concentration of the nuclide in a plant organ at harvest’ divided by ’concentration of the nuclide in dry soil’. The TFs for brown (hulled) rice were 0.006 for Andosol and 0.002 for Gray lowland soil. The TFs for different organs of rice plants decreased in the order of blade > stem > rachis > unhulled rice >> brown rice.The concentration of iodine in soil solution under flooded conditions varied with time during cultivation. The iodine concentration in rice plants seemed to be influenced by the soil solution.The effect of removal of 1–129 from paddy fields by harvesting rice plants was also modelled. Even assuming continuous deposition of 1–129 onto the field, annual harvesting of the blades and stems of rice plants could effectively reduce the amount of the nuclide in the root zone.

Stevia is an important non-caloric sweetener that has health-beneficial properties. The objective is to evaluate growth, development, and rooting of stevia plants during different seasons of the year using growth hormones. Eight experiments were set up in Ciudad Guzman, Jalisco, Mexico, with three treatments (T): T1, indol-3 butyric acid (IBA) 7.4 mM; T2, alphanaphthylacetamide (ANA) 6.4 mM + IBA 0.3 mM; and T3, control. The variables evaluated were rooted plantlets, plant height, root length, number of leaves, stem diameter, leaf dry weight, stem dry weight, root dry weight, leaf area, shoot biomass, total biomass, as well as development and growth indexes. Four samplings were conducted in each experiment. The results show that the most appropriate months for propagating stevia cuttings are February, March, April, May, and July, when 96% to 99% of the cuttings rooted. The hormones had the best results related to production of root development. The control was outstanding only in variables related to production of shoot biomass and not to root development. It is concluded that stevia can be propagated vegetatively using cuttings treated with IBA 7.4 mM or ANA 6.4 mM + IBA 0.3 mM, preferable in the period from February to July, with the exception of June.

Most of paddy fields in Indonesia are not consolidated, therefore, soil hardpan usually did not exist.  With no soil hardpan, mobility of any machine for crop maintenance is very difficult even in some places is almost impossible.Until now crop maintenance such as weeding, spraying and spreading fertilizer was done manually by labor. Then mechanization is required to replace the labour which is not available or very expensive. Hence, this study conducted with objective to make a prototype II of a single wheel tractor  for crop maintenance operated in deep mud field or in an unconsolidated paddy field. The study also did performance test of a single wheel tractor to measure the tractor speed, traction, sinkage, and slip of wheel  when operated in rice plants field. The results of performance test showed that the speed average of wheel with straight lug and curved lug were 1.15km/hour and 0.97 km/hour. The average of sinkage and slip both of wheels with straight lug and curved lug respectively were 24.8 cm, 25.9 cm and 38.7 %, 26.12%. The results of performance test olso showed that the traction average of wheel with straight lug and curved lug respectively were 45.8 kg and 41.5 kg
