DESCRIPTION:
It also reviews emerging knowledge-intensive and widely applied technologies for rice production, as well as decision aids and innovative approaches for improved nutrient and water management in rice. Rice is a major staple food in China. With the development of the economy, labor transfer and use of new-bred rice varieties, rice cropping systems have been modified for adaptation and new rice production technologies have been innovated with efficient use of input and labor savings to improve rice yield and quality. Therefore, food security means rice security. The scope is thus broad enough to be relevant to any professional in the rice production industry. Students seeking a comprehensive review of the state-of-the-art will also find this volume convenient and complementary to their studies.. This important work describes rice zones, the shift of rice-based cropping systems and evolution of rice production technologies in different rice zones and compiles a large amount of unpublished data and reports
