Abstract

In this study, the ENERGY indices of conventional rice production systems in Babolsar and Lahijan were investigated during 2010. Data were collected from 140 rice paddy farms in two provinces by carrying out a face-to-face questionnaire. The farms were selected based on random sampling method. Results demonstrated that the total input and output ENERGY in Lahijan rice production systems were 43254.3 and 122913.16 MJ, respectively and, for input and output ENERGY in Babolsar, were 40342.22 and 127182.7 MJ, respectively.Additionally, 39% of ENERGY consumption in Guilan Province was assigned to water, 24% to electricity and 19% was allocated to N fertilizer. The character of ENERGY consumption in Mazandaran Province was slightly different, since 41% was allocated to water, and 19% and 14% to N fertilizer and electricity, respectively.Ultimately, the results showed that the ENERGY efficiency of rice production systems in Guilan was 2.84, ENERGY productivity was 0.1 and the proportion of water ENERGY was 39%. Furthermore, the values for the aforementioned indices in Mazandaran Province were 1.15, 0.11, and 41%, respectively. It’s noticeable that the vast majority of input ENERGY was due to using water logging irrigation systems, obtaining it from groundwater resources through use of electric power which, consequently, reduced ENERGY efficiency and productivity in the rice production systems studied. Regarding this, the employment of new technologies for the proper management of water resources recommended.
