In this article we will discuss about the cropping systems of rice in India. 1. Dry Cropping Systems: Various cropping systems involving mixed, inter and or sequence cropping, ideal for different rice ecosystems, have been identified by the farms and scientists to boost and stabilise the productivity. Mixed Cropping of Rice Varieties: In low lying […]

Early work on water management was with traditional tall wheat crops. Singh (1945) reported that first irrigation to wheat should be at 65-75 per cent of field capacity by applying 7.6 cm of water per irrigation to saturate 122 cm soil depth. In India, wheat is cultivated as post-rainy season crop and hence responds to […]

Rice is grown under varying ecosystems on a variety of soils under varying climatic and hydrological conditions ranging from waterlogged and poorly drained to well drained situations. Rice is also grown under rainfed as well as irrigated conditions (Fig 1.1). The hydrologically based rice ecosystems terminologies to discriminate rice cultural systems in India include two […]
