D. Lesson Proper
The teacher will discuss the following:

If given a chance to select a good site for rice production, here are the important factors to
consider to ensure optimum growth and development. These are soil, climate, and
location.

The following are the different factors to be considered in selecting a good site for rice production, as
stated in the Competency-Based Learning Module (CBLM) for Rice Production:

1. Soil. A rice field should possess the following attributes:

a. high clay content
b. a 2:1 ratio of top clay mineral montmorillonite
c. medium amount of organic matter
d. good drainage
e. top soil 18 – 20 cm deep
f. soil pH range of 6.2 -7.0

2. Climate. Climate change is one of the factors posing challenge to rice production nowadays. These
factors include rainfall, sunlight, wind velocity, and temperature.

a. Rainfall. In rainfed areas, the start of the rainy season determines the planting time.
This is because the source of water supply for non-irrigated rice field comes directly from
rainfall. On the other hand, too much rainfall causes floods that submerged the plants. Water directly
affects the photosynthetic activity of the rice plant.
b. Sunlight. It is the foremost source of energy of all plant life. When water supply is not limited,
sunshine is the most important climatic factor that influences rice yield.
Therefore, site should be free of any barrier to sunlight
c. Temperature. It is a limiting factor in rice production. However, in the Philippines, temperature is
almost constant, hence, it is not a critical problem.
d. Wind velocity. Gentle wind is beneficial to rice plant because new air blown around the plant causes
replenishment of carbon dioxide. Strong wind such as heavy wind during
typhoon may cause lodging and shattering of rice grain, reduction of photosynthetic activities and may
enhance growth of bacterial leaf diseases.
3. Location. Farm location greatly affects the profitability of rice production. The following are some
factors to consider:
a. the farm should be near the road to facilitate ease of transport.
b. there should be available laborers in the different stages of rice production.
c. good irrigation and drainage.
d. proximity to drying pavement and other post-harvest
Guide questions:
1. Ask the students if they have insights about the factors to consider in site selection for rice production.
2. Ask the students why is it important to know the different factors to consider in site selection for rice
production.

E. Generalization
IMPORTANT THINGS TO REMEMBER
 Selecting the appropriate site plays a vital role in the success of rice
production.
 Factors to consider in selecting the site
a. accessibility of the farm to the road
b. availability of good labor supply
c. good irrigation and drainage
d. proximity of threshing and drying pavement
 Factors that affect growth and development of the crop
1. kinds of soil
2. climate
3. location
 Soil pH for rice is from 6.2 to 7.0

C. High organic matter
D. pH range of 6.2 – 7.0

4. Rainfall, sunlight, and temperature are referred to as

A. climate.
B. season.
C. weather.
D. all of the above

5. What is the ideal soil pH for rice production?

A. 6.2 – 7.0
B. 6.5 – 8.0

D. 7.5 – 8.0
 G. Assignment
Direction: Visit the school farm conduct an on-site inspection. Based on your observation identify the ideal
site. Use the table below and check the spaces if the factors are met, write the appropriate rating based on the
scale listed below, considering the adaptability of factors in selecting the site.
