Chusnul Arif. Budi Indra Setiawan, Masaru Mizoguchi and Ryoichi Doi
Abstract: In this study, an optimal non-floodedIrrigation regime that maximizes both the yield andwater productivity of System of Rice Intensification(SRI) crop management was simulated by geneticalgorithms (GAs) model. Here, the field was classifiedinto wet (\\I). medium (M) and dry (D) conditions ineach growth stage, namely initial, crop development,mid-season and late season stages according to the soilmoisture level. The simulation was performed based onthe identification process according to the empirical dataduring three cropping seasons. As the results, theoptimal combination was 0.622 (W), 0.563 (W), 0.522(M), and 0.350 crnvcrrr' (D) for initial, cropdevelopment, mid-season and late season growth stages,respectively. The wet conditions in the initial and cropdevelopment growth stages should be achieved toprovide enough water for the plant to develop root, stemand tiller in the vegetative stage, and then the field canbe drained into medium condition with the irrigationthreshold of field capacity to avoid spikelet fertility inmid-season stage and finally, let the field dry to savemore water in the late season stage. By this scenario, itwas simulated that the yield can be increased up to6.33% and water productivity up to 25.09% with savingwater up to 12.71% compared to the empirical data.
Keywords: system of rice intensification (SRI), non-flooded irrigation, crop productivity, water productivity,genetic algorithms.

Introduction
Recently, the scarcities of water resources andcompetition for their use have made water saving themain challenge in maintaining the sustainability of ricefarming. Therefore, water saving technology becomesone of the priorities in rice research (Barker et al. 2000).From the previous findings, rice is highly possibleproduced under water saving technology with System ofRice Intensification (SRI) crop management in whichcontinuous flooded irrigation is not essential anymore togain high yield and biomass production (Zhao • al.201 I; Sato et al. 201 I; Lin et al. 201 I).SRI is well-known as a set crop management practicesfor raising the productivity of irrigated rice by changingthe management of plants, soil, water and nutrients.Although some critics were dismissed to the SRI(Sinclair and Cassman 2004; Sheehy et al. 2004;Oobermann 2004), however, its benefits have beenvalidated in 42 countries of Asia, Africa and LatinAmerica (Uphoff et al. 2011). In the SRI paddy field,non-flooded irrigation is applied in which the field isallowed dry during particular time instead of keepingthem continuously flooded, a practice called alternatewetting and drying irrigation (AWOl) (Van der Hoek etal. 2001).Many experiments have been conducted by comparingcontinuous flooded and non-flooded irrigations underSRI crop management (Choi et al. 2012; Zhao et al.2011; Sato et al. 2011; Hameed et al. 2011; Barison andUphoff 2011; Chapagain and Yamaji 2010). Waterproductivity can be raised by saving water significantly,as reported in studies that provide data for differentcountries, e.g., 28% in Japan (Chapagain and Yamaji2010),40% in Eastern Indonesia (Sato et al. 2011), and38.5% in Iraq (Hameed et al. 2011). Also by SRI cropmanagement, the land productivity raised more thandouble in Madagascar (Barison and Uphoff 2011), 78%in Eastern Indonesia (Sato et al. 2011), 65% inAfghanistan (Thomas and Ramzi 2011), 42% in Iraq(Hameed et al. 2011), and 11.3% in China (Lin et al.2011). However, the optimal wet and dry levels(represented by soil moisture) in each growth stage isstill unclear because there is lack information study onoptimizing water irrigation regime under SRI cropmanagement. Thus, the current study was undertaken tofind optimal soil moisture level in each growth stage tomaximize both land and water productivity duringcultivation period.

In the irrigation planning model, it has always been adifficult problem to find optimal or near optimalsolutions with traditionally dynamic optimizationsmethod because of multi-factors, uncertainty and non-lmearity in the model (Zhang et al. 2008). Also,traditional optimizations have limitations in findingglobal optimization results for a complex irrigationplanning problem because they search from point topoint (Kuo et al. 2000). Thus, genetic algorithms (GAs)model proposes global optimization search with manyremarkable characteristic by searching the entirepopulation instead of moving from one point to the nextas the traditional methods (Kuo et al. 2000).GAs model has ability to rapidly search a global optimalvalue of a complex objective function using a multi-point search procedure involving crossover andmutation processes (Goldberg 1989). GAs model differsfrom traditional optimization and other searchprocedures in the following ways: (l) GAs works with acoding of the parameter set, not the parametersthemselves, (2) GAs searches from population of points,not single point, (3) GAs uses objective functioninformation, not derivatives or other auxiliaryknowledge, and (4) GAs uses probabilistic transitionrules, not deterministic rules (Goldberg 1989). GAsmodel has been applied to several irrigation planningapplications (Zhang et al. 2008; Ward law and Bhaktikul2004; Raju and Kumar 2004; Kuo et al. 2000).However, optimizing non-flooded irrigation regime byfinding optimal soil moisture in each growth stage hasnot yet been achieved particularly under SRI cropmanagement.Therefore, the objective of current study was to findoptimal soil moisture level in each growth stage ofpaddy rice under SRI crop management using GAsmodel to maximize both land and water productivity.
Materials and Methods
Field ExperimentsThe optimization process was carried based the fieldexperiment in the experimental paddy field in theNagrak Organics SRI Center (NOSC), Sukabumi, WestJava, Indonesia located at 06°50'43" S and 106°48'20"E, at an altitude of 536 m above mean sea level (Fig. 1)during three cropping seasons (Table 1).

There were four plots and each plot was planted with thevariety of rice tOryza saliva L), Sintanur using thefollowing SRI crop management: single planting ofyoung seedlings spaced at 30 cm x 30 cm, applying anorganic fertilizer at 1 kg/m ' in the land preparation, butno chemical fertilizer. The weeding was performedevery 10 days in the period between 10 and 40 days
after transplantation supplying local indigenousmicroorganism to enhance biological activity in the soils(Uphoff et al. 2011)
Source: earth.google.com (2012)Fig. I Experimental field location 111 West Java.Indonesia.Each plot was irrigated under different water irrigationregimes according to the growth stages, namely, initial,crop development, mid-season and late season stages(Vu et al. 2005; Tyagi et al. 2000; Alien et al. 1998;Mohan and Arumugam 1994). Non-flooded conditionwas applied in all regimes and in each growth stage thesoil was classified into three conditions i.e. wet (W),medium (M) or dry (D) to realize the soil moisturedescribed by changes in soil suction head (i.e. pF value)(Arif et al. 2011 a) presented in Fig. 2. The wet conditionwas achieved when pF value was between 0 and 1.6which was the air entry value for this soil. The mediumcondition was achieved when pF value was between 1.6and 2.54 which was the field capacity value. When thesoil was drier than the medium condition, the conditionwas regarded as the dry condition.

oil moisture and meteorological data consisting of airtemperat re, wind speed, relative humidity, solarradiation and precipitation were collected by a quasi realtin-e monitoring system (Arif et al. 20 I1 b). Here,meteorological data were used to calculate referenceevapotranspiration (ETo) based on the FAO Penman-Monteith model (Alien et al 1998). Then, usingmonitoring data. total irrigation, crop evapotranspirationwere estimated b) Excel Solver (Arif et al. 2012a).
Modeling Approach
Identification procedureTo determine optimal soil moisture level in each growthstage to maximize yield and water productivity, therelationship between their values and the yield as well aswater productivity should be identified firstly based onempirical data. Since there was no mathematical modelbetween them, identification process was carried outgradually and its procedure as follow:I. Yield as function of plant height and tiller
numbers/hillThe yield has positive correlation to plant growthrepresented by plant height and tiller numbers/hill.Therefore, we used multiple linear regressions to showthe correlation between the yield and plant height aswell as tiller numbers.hill, The basic formula was givenas follow:Y=aPH+bTH+e (I)Where Y is yield (ton/ha), PH is plant height (cm), THis tiller numbers/hill, a, b, c are coefficients of plantheight, tiller numbers/hill and the intercept, respectively.Plant height and tiller numbers/hill were measuredmanually every 5 days and we used their average valuesin the end of mid-season stage when maturity time wasstarted to show their correlation to the yield (Alien et al.1998). Here, all coefficients in equation I weredetermined empirically according field experiments bymultiple linear regressions.2. Plant height and tiller numbers/hill as function of
soil moisturePlant height and tiller numbers/hill are affected by soilcondition represented by the soil moisture level in eachgrowth stage. In fact, it is difficult to identify therelationship between soil moisture and plant growth bymathematical model because it is characterized by non-linearity. Thus, we implemented neural networks modelto show its correlation since neural networks modeldeals with complex system such as in agriculturalsystem (Hashimoto 1997). The model consisted threelayers, i.e. input, hidden and output layers. Soil moisturein the initial (SM 1), crop development (SM2), mid-season (SM3) and late season (SM4) were used as in theinputs, while plant height (PH) and tiller numbers/hill(TH) as the outputs (Fig.3).3. Water productivity with respect total water inputSince we focused to find the minimum water input asmuch as possible, thus we defined water productivity
with respect total water input (Bouman et al. 2005) withthe following equation:
Wp= yL(! +P)
Where I is total irrigation (mm) that affected by the soilmoisture level in each growth stage, P is precipitation(mm) and WP is water productivity (g grain/kg water).

Optimization procedureThe objective function can be described as:F(SM 1,SM2,SM2,SM4)= dY +eWP (3)
Maximize F(SMI ,SM2,SM3,SM4)Subject to:
0.586~SMI~0.622(ern3fern3) (4)
0.563 ~ SM2 ~ 0.593 (cm 3/cm ') (5)
0.455 ~ SM3 ~ 0.522 (cm3/cm ') (6)
0.350 ~ SM4 ~ 0.505 (cm i/cm ") (7)
Where d and e are weights for the yield (Y) and waterproductivity (WP) and their values were 0.6 and 0.4,respectively. Since both Y and WP have different unit,thus their values were normalized using their maximumand minimum values based on empirical data. Here,GAs model searched optimal combination of SM I,SM2, SM3, and SM4 with their interval (minimum andmaximum soil moisture in each growth stage) accordingexperiment data to maximize the objective function bymulti-point searching procedure.In order to employ GAs model, some parameters such asindividual, population, fitness function and operators ofGAs should be defined firstly as follows:I. Definition of individual
An individual represented a candidate for theoptimal solution that consisting of particular valuesSM I, SM2, SM3 and SM4. Meanwhile a setindividual was called population. An individual wascoded as six-bit binary strings as illustrated asfollow:Individual = SMI, SM2, SM3, SM4

2 Fitness functionFitness function is an indicator to show the qualityof an individual. All individuals in a populationwere evaluated based on their performances inwhich the higher fitness function, the better abilityto survive In this problem, fitness function wasgiven same as an objective function (equation 3).
3. Operators of GAs modelThe main operators were crossover and mutation.Crossover combined features from two individualsbased on crossover rate (Pc). It is operated byswapping corresponding component in the binarystrings represented an individual. Mutation invertedone or more bit binary string (also called gene) ineach indiv idual from 0 to 1 or 1 to 0 based onmutation rate (Pm). Here, Pc and Pm were 60% and5%, respectively.

Fig. 4 Searching procedure of GAs model in the currentstudy.We adopted the searching procedure as developedpreviously (Suhardiyanto et al. 2009) and could befurther explained as follow:I. An initial population consisting of ten individuals
were generated randomly as the first generation2. Fitness function was calculated to show the
performance of each individual3. The performance of each individual was evaluated
by sorting maximum to minimum fitness value.Here, 60% of all individuals with the highestperformance were selected to next step, anotherfitness values were eliminated
4. Crossover and mutation operations were applied tothe selected individual based on Pc and Pm rates
5. Then, new population was created. Here, 60% ofselected individuals previous generation werecompared to the new population. We implementedthe elitist strategy to find global optimum by sortingthe fitness value and then selected ten individualswith highest performance as the next generation.
6. Steps 2 to 5 were repeated until the requiredgeneration numbers achieved. The optimal valueswere given as an individual with highest fitnesswhen the result was convergent
We developed both neural networks and GAs models inMicrosoft Excel 2007 with Visual Basic Applicationwith our own codes.
Results and Discussions
Correlation between plant growth, yield and soilmoistureBased on empirical data, it was cleared observed thatboth plant height and tiller numbers/hill have positivecorrelation to the yield with R2 of 0.86 and 0.89,respectively (Fig.5). These results were consistent withprevious findings that higher plant height with moretiller numbers/hill promoted more yield and vice versa(Kumar et al. 2012; Zeng et al. 2003). Therefore, thecorrelation between the yield and both plant height andtiller numbers/hill can be presented well by multiplelinear regressions with R2 of 0.94 (Fig.6). Commonlythe yield of rice is highly dependent upon the number offertile tiller numbers/hill, thus more tiller numbers/hillhave high probability to produce more fertile tiller(Zeng et al. 2003).

Observed yield(ton/ha)
Fig. 6 Multiple linear regression plant height and tillernumbers/hill on the yield.The yield also has positive correlation to the cropevapotranspiration (ET) with R~ of 0.94 as presented inFig. 7. It was indicated that higher cropevapotranspiration promoted more evaporation processfrom the soil and transpiration process from the plant,thus more yield was achieved as well as biomassproduction (Shih 1987). The linear correlation betweencrop evapotranspiration and the yield is not only foundfor paddy rice (Shih et al. 1983), but also other cropssuch as corn (Ko and Piccinni 2009), cotton and wheat(Jalota et al. 2006). Therefore, crop evapotranspirationis usually used to estimate the yield (Shih 1987).

Fig. 7 Correlation between yield and cropevapotranspiration.Crop evapotranspiration is vital for irrigation schedulingand water resource allocation, management andplanning (Jensen et al. 1990). Also, it is a maincomponent of water consumption in paddy fields, thusits rate is depend on water availability in the fieldrepresented by soil moisture. In other words, plantgrowth and the yield were clearly affected by soilmoisture level in each growth stage (Arif et al. 2012b;Anbumozhi et al. 1998). However, there is nomathematical model was found showed the relationbetween soil moisture level in each growth stage andplant growth as well as the yield.Here, we used neural networks model to estimate plantgrowth represented by plant height and tiller
numbers/hill as affected by soil moisture level in eachgrowth stage. Fig. 8 shows the comparisons betweenobserved and estimated values of both plant height andtiller numbers/hill by neural networks model. It can beseen that the estimated values were closely related to theobserved values with R2 of 0.82 and 0.92 for estimationof plant height and tiller numbers/hill, respectively. Thismeans that more than 80% of observed values can beexplained linearly by neural networks model. Therefore,the results suggest that a reliable simulation model byneural networks could be obtained to estimate plantheight and tiller numbers/hill.

Optimal soil moisture levels by GeneticAlgorithmsFig. 9 shows the evolution curves of fitness values(equation 3) between their maximum, average andminimum values in each generation. All of valuesincreased sharply from the first to the tenth generation,and then increased gradually until the fortiethgeneration. After the fortieth generation, the all fitnessvalues were convergent until the end of generation andtheir values were 0.68. This means that global maximumvalue was obtained because all of maximum, averageand minimum values were same.Fig. 10 shows the evolution curves of soil moisture levelin each growth stage in obtaining fitness values

presented in Fig. 9. SM I and S'vI2 were convergentfaster than others growth stages in which their valueswe-e reached before the tenth generation. Meanwhile,SM3 was convergent latest in the fortieth generation,thus fitness value was also convergent started at thismoment (Fig. 9). This means that the optimal soilmoisture level in each growth stage that maximizes theyield and water productivity was obtained from themodel simulation based on the GAs procedure shown inFig. 4 after the fortieth generation.

Fig. I0 Evolution curves in searching the optimal values ofsoil moisture in each growth stage.Table 2 shows the optimal soil moisture level in eachgrowth stage obtained from the GAs simulation, whileFig. II shows the optimal output simulated by GAsmodel. Four irrigation regimes with some combinationsof soil moisture level from the field measurements arealso represented in the table with the same precipitationduring cropping season as the comparison. The optimalcombination of soil moisture level in each growth stageobtained in this study was 0.622 (wet), 0.563 (wet),0.522 (medium), and 0.350 crrr'zcrn:' (dry) for initial,crop development, mid-season and late season growthstages, respectively. By this scenario, it was simulatedthat the yield can be increased up to 6.33% and waterproductivity up to 25.09% with saving water up to12.71% compared to the first regime (as base line).From this simulation, it can be concluded that during thefirst to the second stages keeping the field in the wetcondition is important to fulfill plant water requirement.
In the SRI, avoid continuous flooding is one of the theirelements because rice plants cannot grow best underhypoxic soil conditions, thus plants should be given justenough water at saturated condition to meet theirrequirement for root, stem and tiller development(Uphoff et al. 2011). Then, the field can be drained intomedium condition in the third stage when plantsfocusing on reproductive stage (flowering and panicledevelopment). The medium condition with the thresholdof irrigation was reduced to the field capacity (pF 2.54)is important in developing aerobic condition to avoidspikelet sterility particularly around flowering time(Bouman et al. 2005). Finally, the field should bedrained into dry condition in the last stage to save thewater input as reported previous studies (Uphoff et al.2011; Doorenbos and Kassam 1979; Zawawi et al.2010).

Conclusions
In this study, optimal combination of soil moisture levelin each growth stage that maximizes both the yield andwater productivity of SRI crop management wassimulated by GAs model. The simulation was performedbased on the identification process according to theempirical data during three cropping seasons. As theresults the optimal combination was 0.622 (wet), 0.563
• 3 1(wet), 0.522 (medium), and 0.350 cm /cm (dry) forinitial. crop development. mid-season and late seasongrowth stages, respectively. The wet conditions in theinitial and crop development growth stages should beachieved to provide enough water for vegetativedevelopment, and then the field can be drained with theirrigation threshold of field capacity to avoid spikeletfertility in mid-season stage and finally, let the field d~yto save more water in the late season stage. By thisscenario it was simulated that the yield can be increasedup to 6.33% and water productivity up to 25.09% ~ithsaving water up to 12.71% compared to the first regime(as base line).
