Abstract


SRI is a combination of several practices those include changes in nursery management, time of transplanting, water and weed management.

Farmers adopt the SRI principles according to their specific conditions. In Tripura all sections of society are practicing SRI. Farmers who have practiced the SRI for two to three seasons could easily overcome the difficulties. The main objectives of this paper were: (a) to study the benefits of system of rice intensification method; and (b) to study the implementation of system of rice intensification method in Tripura.
