  1. CWARice Education

    CWARice Education’s mission is to provide knowledge and skills to everyone in the agricultural sector of CWA region with an emphasis on new production technologies that will be required to adapt rice production systems in the region to climatic extremes and climate change. In addition, we work closely with organizations to create new courses, that best serve their goals.

    Short training course on System of Rice Intensification (SRI)
    SRI is a rice production methodology that focuses on natural means of enhancing soil health and providing more space and better conditions for each individual rice plant, allowing each to produce more. Instead of dense planting, inundated fields and relying on chemical inputs to control weeds and boost fertility, SRI uses wide spacing, applications of compost, early transplanting, and manual weeding which serves to aerate the soil as well. The result is better soil health, better plant health, and typically higher yields, with up to 90% reduction in seed use, significantly lower water use, reduced cost for inputs, and much less exposure for farmers and the environment to potentially toxic chemical inputs. Furthermore, SRI is a methodology that allows farmers to increase yields while still using whatever local varieties of rice they already have.

    SRI Course Objective:
    This course seeks to increase the adoption of the SRI technique across Central West Asia as a means of contributing to food security throughout the region.
