The basic concepts of SRI
• Start with young seedlings in order to preserve mature plants’ growth potential - However, direct-seeding is becoming an option with the other SRI practices, which is a major change in the original concept.
• Avoid trauma to the roots – transplant quickly, shallow (1-2 cm), with no inversion of the seedings’ root tips that will delay the plants’ resumption of growth after transplanting.
• Give plants optimally wider spacing – one plant per hill and in square pattern so as to achieve ‘the border effect’ for the whole field.
• Keep paddy soil sufficiently moist, but not continuously flooded, mostly aerobic and not saturated – This concept has been adapted for rice-growing in rainfed, unirrigated areas with considerable success.
• Actively aerate the soil as much as possible, using a rotary hoe or cono weeder to control weeds.
• Enhance soil organic matter as much as possible applying compost, mulch, manure, etc. Chemical fertilizers can be used with SRI, but the best results have come with organic soil amendments.
