The System of Rice Intensification (SRI): Revisiting Agronomy for a Changing Climate
By modifying management of rice
plants, soil, water and nutrients to
improve growth environments,
farmers can get higher-yielding,
more vigorous and resilient plants
nurtured by larger root systems and
greater diversity/abundance of
beneficial soil organisms. More
productive phenotypes from
available genotypes enhance
farmers’ income and security while
reducing their costs and water
requirements.
