The management mode of irrigation and drainage in field during the growth period of super rice will directly affect its growth trend, yield and water consumption. Increasing the oxygen content of irrigation water will help to promote the growth of rice and increase the yield. To understand the effect of oxygation on growth and yield of super rice, 7 irrigation and drainage management modes were designed and carried out in the super hydrid early rice field during the whole growth period by using oxygation and non-oxygation, so as to find a better management mode under different conditions. The results showed that the oxygation with the same irrigation in field had a significant effect on promoting the growth and increasing the yield of rice compared with that non-oxygation. However, the results of increasing the yield of rice by oxygation were very different among the modes. Under the oxygation condition, the Drought-tolerant II had the best growth trend and yield increase, and the irrigation water quantity was in the middle level, which had better water conservation and drainage reduction effect compared with the conventional mode. The Drought-tolerant II is "controlled irrigation and storage" mode, which is moderate water shortage controls irrigation and moderate rain storage controls drainage. The moderate water shortage controls irrigation mean that the soil moisture content is lower than 70% of the saturated water capacity as the irrigation control parameter during the drought in rice field. The moderate rain storage controls drainage the maximum rain storage depth of 200 mm as the field drainage control parameter during the rain in rice field. The results indicated that the Drought-tolerant II is a relatively optimal irrigation and drainage management method for rice field in southern China.
