Drawing on the experiences of Asian countries, we attempt to identify the transferability of Asian Green Revolution to sub-Saharan Africa by examining whether there is a common set of factors affecting rice yields in the two regions. We have attempted to propose the strategy to realize a Green...

You’ve Come a Long Way Since -- Introduction: Agricultural Development in Asia and Africa -- Are the Lessons from the Green Revolution Relevant for Agricultural Growth and Food Security in the Twenty-first Century?.-The Central Luzon Loop Survey: Rice Farming in the Philippines from 1966 to...

Many rice farmers burn stubble and straw after harvest, which worsens air pollution. This paper examines the impact of training on the adoption of advanced rice harvesting technologies that reduce the need for crop burning. It uses data from a cluster randomized controlled trial in Pakistan. The...

This study assesses the impact of increased fertilizer prices under different scenarios on rice production, consumption, trade and prices. Using a global rice model based on a partial equilibrium framework, the simulation results show that a 30% to 100% increase in fertilizer prices would reduce...
