Foreword
Agricultural economists maintain that for Filipino rice
farmers to be at par with their counterparts from
other rice-producing countries such as Vietnam and
Thailand, they must increase their yield to 6t/ha and
reduce their palay production cost by 30% (from P12
to P8/kg). While technologies are available to help
them attain the target, they need to employ a more
holistic integrated approach that can help them
improve their farming practices and ensure high-
quality output from-seed-to-seed. After all, producing
rice involves a complex series of transformation
processes.

The
PalayCheck System
PalayCheck is a dynamic rice crop management
system that presents the key technology and
management practices as Key Checks; compares
farmer practices with best practices; and learns
from farmers’ discussion groups to sustain
improvement in productivity, profitability, and
environment safety. PalayCheck is simply “learning,
checking, and sharing for best farming practices”.

Steps in using the
PalayCheck System
1. Manage the rice crop using the Key Checks.
PalayCheck develops a package of technology
recommendations. Emphasize to farmers
that the Key Checks are the most important
recommendations toward attaining high yield.
Each principal area of crop management can
have one or more Key Checks. Each Key Check is
expressed in a structured way. Therefore, each of
them has the following:
• Crop Management Area. In variety and seed
selection, for example, the Key Check is “Used
high-quality seeds of a recommended variety.”
• Importance. This indicates why the Key Check
is so necessary in achieving the field output,
or growth-and-yield output of the crop. For
example, high-quality seed is pure, clean, full
and uniform in size, and has a germination
rate of at least 85%.
• Assessment of Key Check. This is the indicator
or method to determine if the Key Check has
been achieved.
For example, the seed is either certified by
NSQCS as evidenced by a tag on the sack, or
comes from reliable sources (e.g. PhilRice,
UPLB, accredited seed growers) or own-
produced. If achieved, it is given a check (). If
not achieved, it is given a cross (x).
• Recommendation to achieve Key Check.
The practices required to achieve the Key
Check as well as other associated practices
needed to manage the crop are laid down. For
9
example, “choose a variety with high market
demand, and performed well in adaptability
trials”. The recommended practices are the
inputs, the Key Checks are the outputs.
10
It is not simply putting a check () or
a cross (x) on the Key Checks.

For TPR:
1. Follow these recommendations
Method Seeding Seedbed Age of No. of Planting
rate area seedlings seedlings distance
(days) per hill (cmxcm)
27
• Apply organic fertilizer or carbonized rice hull
before leveling the seedbed. This helps loosen
the soil, making pulling of seedlings easier with
less root damage.
28
For DWSR:
1. Follow the recommended seeding rate of 40-
60kg/ha for row seeding and 60-80kg/ha for
broadcast seeding.
2. Prepare the field for seeding by following
the land preparation and levelling
recommendations outlined in Key Check 2
(page 17).
3. Protect pre-germinated seeds from birds,
rats, snails, and weeds by following the
recommended pest management practices.
4. Use drumseeder or broadcast pre-germinated
seeds evenly onto the field.

31
Assessment of Key Check
No symptoms of nutrient deficiency or toxicity
from tillering to early panicle initiation (EPI) and
flowering.
32
Recommendations to achieve Key Check 5
1. Know and manage the nutrient requirements
of your crop based on:
a. visual observation of deficiency symptoms
UPPER LEAVES
Zinc (Zn)
Calcium (Ca)
Copper (Cu)
Iron (Fe)
Boron (B)
Sulfur (S)
Manganese (Mn)
LOWER LEAVES
Nitrogen (N)
Phosphorus (P)
Potassium (K)
Magnesium (Mg)
Minus-One-Element Technique
(MOET) kit and MOET App
A soil nutrient diagnostic
technology done through a pot
experiment complemented
with an ICT-based application
to determine the nutrients
deficient in the soil and the
amount of fertilizer needed to
attain a certain target yield.
33
Nutrient-Omission-Plot Technique
(NOPT)
A means to assess indigenous
nutrient supply to serve as basis of
fertilizer recommendation.
NITROGEN (N)
Right element. N promotes rapid growth
for increased:
• plant height, tiller number, and leaf size;
• number of panicles per hill;
34
• number of spikelets per panicle;
• grain protein content; and,
• percentage of filled spikelets.
N deficiency results in stunted, yellowish
plants; older leaves or whole plants are
yellowish green.
Right timing.
If LCC/LCC App is available:
• use LCC every 7 days from 14 DAT or 21
DAS until early flowering
35
• apply N if 6 or more out of 10 leaves are
below 4 (TPR) or 3 (DWSR).
PHOSPHORUS (P)
Right element. P functions mainly for energy
storage and transfer. In rice, it promotes
vigorous root development, tillering, and
early flowering and ripening.
Right timing.
APPLICATION
TPR 0-14 DAT
DWSR 7-10 DAS
POTASSIUM (K)
Right element. K in rice plants:
• speeds up root growth and boosts plant
vigor;
• accelerates uptake of other nutrients;
• improves tolerance of rice to adverse
conditions such as pest and disease
infestations, drought, lodging; and,
• increases grain size and weight, and
percent filled grains
37
K deficiency symptoms include dark green
plants with yellowish brown leaf margins or dark
brown necrotic spots first appearing on the tip
of older leaves. Yellowing follows a “Ʌ” pattern
and progresses downward if deficiency is not
corrected.
Right timing.
APPLICATION
1st 2nd
TPR 0-14 DAT 5-7 days before or after
panicle initiation
DWSR 7-10 DAS 5-7 days before or after
panicle initiation
ZINC (Zn)
Right element. Zn promotes good seedling and
overall growth of plants. It is essential for several
biochemical pathways and structural processes
in the rice plant.
Zn deficiency symptoms include dusty brown
spots on upper leaves of stunted plants
appearing 2-4 weeks after transplanting. In
Zn-deficient soils, NPK fertilizers alone cannot
provide good yield unless the deficiency is
corrected.
SULFUR (S)
Right element. S in rice plants:
• promotes uniform growth and maturity;
• speeds up chlorophyll production, protein
synthesis, and plant function and structure;
and
39
• reduces yield if deficiency occurs at
vegetative stage
Symptoms of S deficiency include yellowing
of young leaves, less tillers, fewer and shorter
panicles, reduced number of spikelets per
panicle, and delayed maturity.
Right timing.
APPLICATION
TPR 0-14 DAT
DWSR 7-10 DAS

Recommendations to achieve Key Check 7
1. Use varieties that are resistant to pests
prevalent in the locality. This is the first line of
defense against pests and is compatible with
the biological control method.
Change or rotate varieties every 2-4 croppings.
2. Practice synchronous planting after a 30-day
rest period (see Key Check 3, pp 21-22).
3. Conduct regular field-monitoring from
the early stage of crop growth onwards to
identify potential pests at their initial stage of
development. Preventive disease management
options can be applied before it spreads and
reaches intolerable levels. For insect pests,
preventive management options such as
use of resistant varieties and synchronous
planting are preferred. Insecticide application
is a corrective measure to be used as a last
resort when all cultural, biological, and physical
control measures fail.

57
Recommendations to achieve Key Check 9
1. Dry the palay uniformly within 12-24
hours after harvest/threshing.
• Use mechanical dryers at temperature not
exceeding 50-70oC for 5-8 hours.
• When drying dripping-wet palay, operate
the dryer with unheated air during the first
1-2 hours of drying or until 18% MC (skin
dry).
• Reduce drying air temperature to 40-45oC
during the last 2 hours of drying or when
MC is about 15%. Dry grains to 12-14% MC.
• When no mechanical dryer is available,
sun-dry on clean concreted pavement.
Stir the grains at least once every 30min
for uniform drying. Avoid getting the dried
palay drenched with rain.
58
2. Place dried grains on top of pallets to
protect them from dampness while
awaiting grain-cleaning.
59
4. If not sold immediately, keep grains in
a storage area that is waterproof, with
proper aeration, and free from pests such
as rats, birds, and insects.
• Never store clean, dried grains together
with agricultural chemicals, fertilizers, or
cement in the same storage area.
• Check for heating by lifting the top bag and
feeling the bag below.
• Inspect the stacks at least once a week to
detect pest infestation, physical damage, or
staining caused by water which indicates
re-wetting.
• Keep the storage area clean and tidy inside
and outside, and ensure periodic aeration
to:
a. prevent re-entry of moisture in
stored grains
b. protect grains from insects, rodents,
and birds
c. facilitate loading and unloading
d. maximize the use of space
e. ease product maintenance and
management
5. Do not drag rice sacks when transporting
to prevent damages. Use sack barrows if
available.
60
6. Prepare the stack layout plan
before the sacks arrive.
• Do not mix varieties in one stack or pile. Do
not mix old and new stocks in the pile.
• The pile should be built up to the edge of
the pallet. Bonded piles are more stable.
• Provide air spaces in every pile for
ventilation.
• Piles should not be so high that pallets at
the bottom are crushed or split. Up to 6-7
bags per pile is acceptable. Height of stacks
should not exceed the height of the walls.
• Maintain one-meter space between piles,
walls, and roof frames.
