Enhancing Resiliency and Productivity of Flood Prone Coastal Rice Farming through Integrated Organic-Biofertilizers and Crop Management for Climate Change Adaptation

Coastal rice farming is vulnerable to climate change, including flooding and extreme weather events. To enhance resilience and productivity, innovative approaches are essential. A study investigated the effects of soil amendment and biofertilizers on rice yield. The findings showed that the use of halotolerant rice varieties and the application of soil amendment and biofertilizers can serve as a primary strategy for flooded rice farming. Sustainable farming practices can empower coastal communities to better adapt to climate change and improve the sustainability of rice production.
