2020 Rice Technical Working Group
Water Symposium
Hosted by Mississippi State University | Video recording made possible by The Rice Foundation
Irrigation management influences every other aspect of rice production. In recent years, much attention has been given to irrigation use amounts and its influence on rice yield in traditional rice management systems. Newer rice irrigation techniques (AWD and furrow irrigation) to the mid-southern U.S. have the potential to alter many aspects of rice production, including fertilizer management and greenhouse gas emissions from rice paddies. This symposium addresses knowledge gained in the use of alternative rice management strategies in comparison to traditional management as well as the pitfalls and successes associated with each system.
