Identify the factors to consider in site selection
“ Site selection is one of the vital factors to ensure the success in farming”
11. Unlocking of Difficulties
Soil-
Is a loose and friable material of the
earth surface where plants grow and
develop
Is a value used to express the relative
acidity or alkalinity of the soil.
Temperature-
Is the degree of hotness and
coldness of the environment.
pH-
Climate-
Is the weather condition of a locality

- A rice field should posses the
following attributes
a. High clay content
top clay
lionite.
c. Medium amount of
organic matter
d. Good drainage
e. T

f. Soil pH range of 6.2-7.0

c. Medium amount of

15. 2. Climate
a. Rainfall
b. Sunlight
c. Temperature
d. Wind velocity
-Climate change is one of the
factors posing challenge to rice
production nowadays
WHATISCLIMATECHANGE?
16. a. Rainfall.
In rain fed 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.

Photosynthetic activity!,
What is it?
18. 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.
19. c. Temperature.
It is a limiting factor in rice production.
However, in the Philippines, Temperature is
almost constant, hence, it is not critical
problem.
Thermometer
20. d. Wind velocity
Gentle wind is beneficial to rice plants 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.

23. 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
and other post-harvest facilities.
