India-Baragarh

Overview

This is a typical rice-rice cropping system area, identified in Eastern India (Odisha State). The site will be used for improvement of rice classification, developing models for rice yield estimation and will aim to establish ‘best practices’ for Rice-Rice agricultural systems. This site will serve for both JECAM and AsiaRiCE.
