Rice cultivation system with less water consumption for sustainable future
Rice is a main food for about one third of the world’s population. Besides, the demand for this crop is anticipated to rise with growing population of the world. Increasing the rice cultivation area can be a fulfillment to hit adequate rice production. Rice crop is mostly produced by conventional me...
