Abstract

Water is the main resource of rice cultivar input for growth development and yield production. The water quality can affect the rice yield. The aim of the study is to analyze the water quality at the rivers that are directly supplied to the paddy fields. The water quality of the river at Merlimau paddy field was tested using Cyberscan 600 series. The variables taken are pH, conductivity level, sodium chloride (NaCl) and resistivity level. The monitoring was conducted at three stages of the paddy cultivation process which are during land preparation, vegetative stage and maturing stage to see the variables supplied to the paddy fields. This study can help the farmers to know the state of water quality that has been used to irrigate the paddy field.
