Alternate wetting and drying (AWD) management
is one of the most important water-saving
strategies commonly practiced, which is being
widely adopted in Egypt. It has been reported
that AWD potentially results in decreased water
inputs by 5%-35% when compared with
contentious flooding, with the yield of rice grain
either being maintained [23-25] or even
increasing [26]. Hence, this study was aimed to
investigate the effects of different methods of Zn
applied through soil, root soaking and foliar on
rice growth, yield and nutrients dynamics status
in grain and straw of rice variety Sakha 104.
