About SRI-Africa
The System of Rice Intensification (Africa), Known as SRI- Africa -is agro-ecological methodology for increasing productivity of irrigated rice by changing the management of plants, soil, water and nutrients. SRI originated in Madagascar in the 1980s and is based on the cropping principles of significantly reducing plant population, improving soil conditions and irrigation methods for root and plant development, improving plant establishment methods.
