Abstract

Rice is the staple food crop, providing global food and nutritional security for millions of peoples. India has the largest rice-growing area in the world but the production environments are diverse and challenging. The rainfed rice ecologies occupy about 45% of the rice area which is present mostly in the eastern region of the country. These rainfed ecologies face both abiotic (submergence, drought) and biotic (pest and diseases) stresses. The adverse effects of these stresses are intensifying with the emerging threats of climate change.
