These factors were chosen to represent lowland rice production situations characterized in surveys conducted in tropical Asia and their corresponding range of attainable yield. Experiments complemented one another in exploring the response surface of rich yields to yield-limiting and yield-reducing factors. The resulting experimental data base consisted of 445 individual plots and involved 11 manipulated injuries in a multiple regression model involving factors generated by principal component analysis on injuries that adequately described the variation in actual yield. One major finding was that some (attainable yield x injury factors) interactions significantly contributed to the description of variation in actual yield, indicating that some injuries (or their combinations) had a stronger or weaker yield-reducing effect, depending on the level of attainable yield. For instance, yield losses due to sheath blight, weed infestation, and rice tungro disease tend to increase, remain stable, and decrease, respectively, with increasing attainable yields. Back-computations using the principal component regression model estimated yield losses caused by individual injuries, using the mean injury levels in a population of farmers' fields surveyed across tropical Asia. The results indicate that sheath blight, brown spot, and leaf blast are diseases that cause important losses (between 1 10%) regionally. Among the insect injuries, only white heads caused by stem borers appear of relevance (2.3%) yield losses)...
