Abstract

Based on findings of long-term experiments as well as experience of farmers participatory trials of RCTs in rice based systems, it was found that direct seeded rice under double no till with laser land leveling reduced cost of cultivation and improved the crop yields and system productivity while conserving natural resources. The technology does not affect rice quality and can be practiced in different ecologies including upland, medium and lowland, deep water and irrigated areas by large as well as small farmers.
