Rice Field Withering

[Xero Effect]

So I've looked up to see if there's anything I'm missing with doing rice fields, and as far as I can tell, I'm doing everything right. I plant at the right time with a flooded field. I flood it for the second growth time, then let it dry out for the final grow period. Then, when it's finally grown and ready to harvest, a huge number of plants in all my fields wither and I have no clue what's causing it. Is there something specific beyond planting, flooding, wait a day, flood, wait a day, dry, wait a day, harvest, that I'm missing? Fertilization goes to 100%, it doesn't grow weeds, nothing is wrong or needed so I don't understand what's happening.

The fields have to be flooded 3 times. Wet rice at the month you plant and the following 2 months, long rice the 3 months after the month you have planted it. For wet rice it´s april, may, june, for long rice the months may, june, july have to be flooded with set 1 day per month.

The water pump will always show you when water is required or not depending on the rice you planted. It only allows to flood when required.

To plant rice in the same field again, do I need to cultivate it before ?
