Weed Ecology Of Balik Pulau Rice Ecosystem
The experiment started by soil sampling at four different rice field plots (Pokok Kenanga, PPK Fasa 3, PPK Fasa 1, and Sungai Burung Darat) in Balik Pulau rice field ecosystem. The soil samples were then brought back to USM for further experiments. Three water level conditions [saturated (3 cm), par...
