The main slogan for the Year of rice is Rice is life. The initiative involves all the rice civilisations, both in Italy and in the rest of the world. The article also deals with other slogans such as Save rice save life, that means to increase
varieties only when the material cost of irrigation is reduced to a reasonable level. In the lower part of the area floating ricecultivation will remain. - (SGA)
The probability of the adoption of modern rice varieties (MVs) in Lowland Bangladesh. Case study in a backswamp located in the south eastern part of the country. In a large part of the lowland the MVs will be able to replace local mixed-sown tall

the changing seasonal drought in the process of rice production under the changing climate in the future, and identifies general rice re-cultivation options for climate change adaptation. It is indicated that due to climate change, seasonal drought in major
adaptation actions for rice-re-cultivation, the ricecultivation pattern undergoes a significant alteration between 1981–2000 and 2001–2030.
Focusing on the spatial distribution of seasonal drought with rice and the practices to adapt to it, and based on an analysis of balanced water supply for and demand by rice at a growing season scale during 1981–2030, this paper assesses
rice producing areas tends to alleviate in general, late season rice in particular. Future climate change brings about a significant impact on the spatial/temporal distribution of water resources in rice producing areas in China. Based on pre-designed
This article briefly summarises the botanical results and data from archaeological excavations in China, India, and Thailand. There is no recent information on the origins of glutinous rice but botanical evidence points to a West African origin.
Effect of fire on soil, rice, weeds and forest regrowth in a rain forest zone (Côte d'Ivoire)
Agricultural practice ; Agropedology ; Fire ; Forest ; Geochemistry ; Ivory Coast ; Rice ; Soil ; Soil properties
Forest, soil, rice, weeds and regrowth were studied in the fields off local farmers in permanent plots during 2-5 years. The fields covered all currently cultivated soil types and forest types. This study is concerned with the full shifting
cultivation cycle: land preparation, cropping and fallowing.
Evaluation of the physical land characteristics for padi ricecultivation in Riam Kanan (South-Kalimantan, Indonesia)
The suitability for padi ricecultivation was studied for a coastal area in Indonesia. For each mapping unit considered, the following physical land characteristics are evaluated: topography, drainage, flooding texture, depth of a sulphuric horizon

Rice production in the Laotian hills have undergone reduction in length of fallow. Although shorter fallow periods resulted in excessive labor needs for weeding, they have had few visible effects on soil fertility and crop yields. - (DWG)
and 2000 year duration of ricecultivation (P300 and P2000). Long-term ricecultivation improved large macroaggregate formation from silt + clay fractions. The highest net nitrification occurred for macroaggregates and the least for large macroaggregates
, which coincided with nitrifier populations. A long duration of intensive ricecultivation history depressed nitrifier populations and nitrification rates at both whole soil scale and aggregate scale.
The AA. describe palynological and sedimentary evidence for comparatively early Holocene human impact in Sarawak, Malaysian Borneo, most probably linked to ricecultivation. This is the first evidence for mid-Holocene human impact in Borneo.
