Response Macronutrient Content of Saline-Resistant Paddy to the Saline Source Distance
Putra, Aditya Nugraha, Adelyanti, Martiana, Sitorus, Albert Fernando
The impact of salinity on paddy production in Indonesia was pronounced with an average decline of 6.83% (2015-2019). Salinity interferes with macronutrients' absorption into plants, causing stunted growth (salinity contributed to a 42% decrease in paddy production). One solution to solve the salinit...
