Influence of Crop Nutrition on Grain Yield, Seed Quality and Water Productivity under Two Rice Cultivation Systems (2013, background): “…been promoted for more than a decade as a set of agronomic management practices for rice cultivation that enhances yield (Kabir and Uphoff, 2007; Senthilkumar et al, 2008; Zhao et al, 2009), reduces water requirements (Satyanarayana et al, 2007), raises input productivity (Sinha and Talati,…”
Effects on rice plant morphology and physiology of water and associated management practices of the system of rice intensification and their implications for crop performance (2011, background): “SRI practices are reported to increase the yields of irrigated rice by 25–50% or even more (Thakur et al. 2010a, b; Zhao et al. 2010; Sinha and Talati 2007; Senthilkumar et al. 2008) while reducing water requirements (Chapagain and Yamaji 2010; Zhao et al. 2010; Satyanarayana et al. 2007).”
