System of Rice Intensification - SRI - Dorabji Tata Trust Grants
Activities:
Others Sir Dorabji Tata Trust and the Allied Trusts seek applications from NGOs, research institutions and universities for the promotion of System of Rice Intensification (SRI) in India. The System of Rice Intensification (SRI) is a system developed in Madagascar in the 1980s and has since 1999 been tried out successfully in 25 countries across the world providing farmers with increased yield and options. SRI is a system of growing rice that involves practices different from the traditional ways of growing rice. It involves single and young seedlings transplantation with care instead of the conventional method of multiple and mature seedlings from the nursery. SRI spaces rice plants more widely and does not depend on continuous flooding of rice fields. It uses lesser seed, chemical inputs and promotes soil biotic activities in and around plant roots, enhanced through liberal applications of compost and weeding with a rotating hoe that aerates the soil.
