Rice Lands during Wet Season
(kharif/ aman, June – December)
• Mostly low-lying
(85-90%)
• Waterlogged due to poor drainage
• Occasional salt water flooding

CONCLUSION
• Yield of rice in coastal areas can be increased
substantially with introduction of improved
varieties
• Water depth paly important role in determining
the suitable rice variety during aman and salinity
tolerance and maturity duration during boro
• Preferential analysis reveals that the higher yield
is primary but not the sole criteria for selecting the
varieties by the farmers
•Short duration aman varieties help in earlier
establishment of boro crop in rice-rice system
