Production constrainrs in deepwater lands<br />
Extreme floods and drought.<br />
Low plant population.<br />
Lack of adequate adaptability and stability in newly<br />
developed varieties.<br />
Non-availability of quality seed.<br />
Inadequate crop and resource management practices.<br />
Predominance of monoculture farming in deepwater<br />
lands.<br />
Weed management problems especially during pre-<br />
flood crop.<br />
Loss of yield due to yellow stem borer and ufra (caused<br />
by stem nematode).<br />

Two lowland varieties, FR 13A and<br />
FR 43B, from Orissa are the best<br />
donors for submergence tolerance.<br />
FR 13A has a high degree of<br />
submergence tolerance at the early<br />
vegetative stage (with least<br />
elongation habit), but is susceptible<br />
to submergence when floods recur<br />
in the late vegetative stage. The<br />
landraces Dhusara and Begunia<br />
Khajara tolerate cycles of flooding/<br />
submergence at both early and late<br />
vegetative stages.<br />
Deepwater area<br />
Varietal needs<br />
Drought tolerance at early crop<br />
establishment stage.<br />
Need-based elongation ability.<br />
Tall habit (150-175 cm).<br />
Nodal tillering to compensate for<br />
poor plant population.<br />
Kneeing ability.<br />
Photoperiod sensitivity (flowering<br />
between last week of October<br />
and early November).<br />
Non-shattering behaviour.<br />
Seed dormancy.<br />
Tolerance to yellow stem borer.<br />
Resistance to ufra.
