| Abstract: | In order to identify a high yielding variety suited to the flood prone areas, a total of 405 entries were screened for their flood tolerance. Selected entries were yield tested for three seasons and finally BR 51-315-4, a semi-tall nonlodging variety with reasonably high grain as well as straw yield was identified as the ideal variety for these areas. Performance of this variety was highly promising in the multilocational farmers field trials also and this high yielding variety is capable of replacing all the traditional rice varieties in flood prone areas. |
