To investigate the influences of morphological features and the chemical compound of rice grain on the crack of rice kernels, rice was cultivated under the different method of fertilizer application and was harvested at optimal and late stage to the crack features of kernels of cracked and healthy grains. The results are summarized as follows ; The occurrence of cracked kernel was more severe in "Samgang-byeo" than in "Nagdong-byeo" and the rice harvested at the late stage was more cracked kernel than that of optimal harvest. The application of silicate fertilizer in addition to the N.P.K. fertilizer resulted in the decrease of cracked kernels. The grain weight, the grain volume (length ${ imes}$ width ${ imes}$ thickness), grain length and grain length/grain width etc. of the cracked kernels were larger than those of the healthy grains. The long "Samgang-byeo", having the long grain Shape, which has larger ratio of grain length/grain width than that of "Nagdong-byeo", shows higher rate of cracked kernels. The grain of "Samgang-byeo" which is easily cracked relatively it contains lower silica and higher phosphorus while "Nagdong-byeo" shows the opposite results. The ratio of silica/phosphorus in the grain was low in "Samgang-byeo" but it was high in "Nagdong-byeo". The ratio of silica/phosphorus in rice grain was increased by the application of silicate fertilizer in addition with N.P.K. fertilizers.
