The objective of this study is to evaluate an agrivoltaic system by reflecting the deterioration of rice yield and quality. The agrivoltaic system means introducing photovoltaic power to agricultural fields. By the notification from Ministry of Agriculture, introducing renewable energy to agricultural fields became limitedly possible. However, current agrivoltaic pioneers do not always consider crop quality deterioration brought from a total life cycle shading. We evaluate a deterioration of growing in a paddy field in Chiba prefecture in Japan. Heading time delayed significantly under the shading condition. Number of ears and weight per an ear were also significantly less under PV panels. Utilizing measured data, we modified the conventional crop model, which simulates rice yield, quality and economic efficiency under the shading weather condition. A 20 percent shading reduces the yield by approximately 20 percent. Number of ears per root accounts for 84 percent of the yield, which indicates early period of the growth needs enough amount of solar radiation for improving the rice growth.
