Abstract

環境保全型稲作が実施されている水田における植物群落の特徴を明らかにするために,兵庫県北部の円山川水系に位置する 4 地区において,「コウノトリ育む農法」を実施している水田と慣行農法を実施している水田の植生を植物社会学的な手法で調査し比較した.農法間の比較では,「コウノトリ育む農法」を実施している水田は慣行農法に比較して出現種数が多く,出現種の累積被度が高かった.しかし,「コウノトリ育む農法」を実施している水田は圃場間,地区間での植生の相違が大きく,それには冬期湛水の実施の有無や個々の農家による農作業の方法の違いなどが影響していると考えられた.

English Abstract

We compared plant community and vegetation in paddy fields in two farming methods: “White Stork-Friendly Farming Method” and “Conventio l Farming Method” to clarify the ecological effects of environmentally friendly farming method at four sites in central Japan. It was turned out that the number of plant species and the cumulative vegetation coverage of weeds were both larger in “White Stork-Friendly Farming Method” than in “Conventio l Farming Method”. Meanwhile, vegetation in paddy fields in “White Stork-Friendly Farming Method” differed largely among sites. This is probably caused by presence/absence of artificial winter fooding and/or difference in serial farmwork by farmers.
