Living Labs: Mekong River Basin



Uploaded by: TVEAPfilms
Video Description:
It takes large volumes of water to grow rice, but old habits have to change in a world running short of water. Rice farmers in Thailand are adopting a new method, System of Rice Intensification (SRI), to achieve more crop with less seeds and water -- but without damaging the environment. It involves using mulch, inter-cropping and transplanting rice earlier than usual.
