Discover how Tanzanian farmers are boosting rice production despite climate change using System of Rice Intensification (SRI)! Learn key practices like young seedlings, reduced water use, less fertilizers, and smart spacing to grow more rice with fewer resources.
With climate change and declining yields undermining rice production in several regions of West Africa, CORAF is banking on a bold solution: the dissemination of hybrid irrigated rice varieties combined with the practice of the System of Rice Intensification (SRI). Commissioned by CORAF, the consortium formed by IER (Mali), INERA (Burkina Faso) and ISRA (Senegal) […]
Context The System of Rice Intensification (SRI) is a sustainable rice cultivation method designed to enhance productivity while minimizing resource inputs. It addresses global food security and environmental challenges by improving yield, reducing water use, and mitigating greenhouse gas emissions, particularly in resource-constrained agricultural systems. Objective This review aims to evaluate the core principles of […]
