Answers
Answer:
Rice is the single most important crop in Assam. It occupies 2.54 million ha of the gross cropped area of 4.16 million ha and contributes 96% of the total food grain production of the state. Assam is very well-recognized for its rich rice genetic diversity. Cultivation of rice under diverse agro ecological conditions over the years has resulted in the development of a multitude of strains with specific adaptations through natural selection and farmers’ discretion. The physical features, geographical location and historical realities have made the state an area of unique diversity and ethnic migration and immigration to the state over the years have led to the introduction of different types of rice genetic stock.
Thus the states’ indigenous rice germplasm is endowed with wide genetic diversity and contributes to abut 20rice germplasm out of 12256 collections maintained on NRRI. Pressed with the needs to produce more, the farmers are replacing their traditional rice varieties with modern ones. AAU and Department of Agriculture, Government of Assam are also making rigorous efforts for such change.
The agro-climatic variation, seasonal variation in temperature and rainfall and agriculture dependence on natural precipitation have resulted in three rice-growing seasons in the state.
Sali or winter rice (June/July – Nov/ Dec) ; Ahu or Autumn rice (March / April – June / July) ; and Boro or summer rice (Nov / Dec – May/June) . The rice germplasm of Assam are classified on the basis of growing season, crop duration, land and hydrological characteristics, seeds’ size and shape a, aroma, and endosperm characteristics. In recent times, modern photo period sensitive varieties of different durations are being widely grown and the irrigation facilities are being increasingly utilized for the rice cultivation in the state.
