  • 1. Fukushima Agricultural Technology Centre, Koriyama, Fukushima (Japan)

Description

Brown rice was collected from ten paddy fields located in four sites in Fukushima Prefecture in year 2011 and 2012 to clear the year difference in radiocesium concentration in brown rice. Paddy fields with the same management including fertilization in both years were selected. Cs-137 concentration in brown rice was in the range of 2.8-290 Bq kg-1 in 2011 and 1.3-160 Bq kg-1 in 2012. The concentration of Cs-137 was decreased by 40% in the average from year 2011 to year 2012. (author)
