Upland rice improvement at Embrapa, Brazil.
Rice is an important crop in Brazil, covering a cultivated area of 5.4 million ha and yielding 7.6 million t. It is the basic energy food for Brazilians who consume an annual 45 kg rice/person. Although farmers grow rice in all parts of Brazil, the most important regions are the west central, southeast, and southern areas, which give 78% of production. Brazilians cultivate rice using four different systems: System I - lowland rice under controlled irrigation. System II - lowland rice without controlled irrigation. System III - lowland rice without irrigation (varzea), and System IV - upland rice totally dependent on rainfall for water requirement.
