This review emphasizes the significance of combining regulated deficit irrigation (RDI) with
woody crops, as they have higher water productivity (WP) and are tolerant to mild water …

Rice (Oryza sativa L.) is considered as a staple food for more than half of the global
population, and sustaining productivity under a scarcity of resources is challenging to meet …

Lysimetric and eddy covariance techniques are commonly used to directly estimate actual
crop evapotranspiration (ET a). However, these technologies are costly, laborious, and …

Alternate wetting and drying (AWD) irrigation can save large amounts of water in rice
cultivation. By repeatedly wetting and drying the soil under AWD, accentuated pore structure …

Among the essential plant nutrients, nitrogen (N) is the most important and universally
deficient in rice cropping systems worldwide. Despite different practices available for …

The current water scarcity and world population increase cause the need for more food,
pushing the demand on water resources due to crop production such as rice. Increasing …

Rainfed paddy fields have a great potential to be developed in Indonesia, especially in
Central Java. However, water irrigation management, drought stress, pest and disease …

Aim This study investigated the impacts of system of rice intensification (SRI) and
conventional management practice (CP) on rice growth, grain yield, and nitrogen use …

Optimizing nitrogen (N) fertilization without sacrificing grain yield is a major concern of rice
production system because most of the applied N has been depleted from the soil and …

Traditional rice (Oryza sativa L.) management (tillage and flooding) is unsustainable due to
soil degradation and the large amount of irrigation water used, an issue which is …
