Shortages of labor, water and the adverse effects of puddling on soil health are forcing farmers to switch rice production systems from puddled transplant to direct seeding. In recent years, resource conservation technologies (RCTs) like zero-tillage (ZT) and bed-planting are being promoted in the r...
