World Rice Production: An Overview

  • Chapter
  • First Online:
Modern Techniques of Rice Crop Production

Abstract

Rice is the important food crop for majority of the humans in the world with contribution more than many other cereal crops. However, with changes in world climatic conditions, rice production is adversely affected. Climate change has rapid effects, which can be seen in the form of extreme prevailing weather conditions. Among the adversities of climate change, the most important is the rise in global temperature, upon which agriculture is mostly dependent. Although, rice is vulnerable to climate imposed changes, however, more sensitive to high temperature. This necessitates shift of rice production systems and conventional technologies towards acclimatization of changing climate. Developing climate smart and integrated technologies and equipping rice crop with those is a possible strategy to cope with the changing climate.
