Rice hull mulch produced tobacco seedlings with significantly longer shoot (11.2 cm), heavier direct root (6.3 g) and shoot (32.8 g) than the other shading and mulching materials and were similar to those seedlings shaded with nipa shingles. Seedling from central plot (no shades nor mulch) had the shortest root and short length (2.1 and 1.3 cm, respectively), least number of smallest stem diameter (1.3 mm) and lowest shoot and root dry weight (0.8 and 3.5 g, respectively). Based on the result, rice hull can be used as mulch in the production of tobacco seedlings.
