UPLAND rice in Brazil: Embrapa.
1984
Rice is a staple food for the Brazilian people and an important source of income for large, medium, and small producers. Production must continually increase to meet the demands of a growing population, but annual production varies substantially because nearly 70% of it is from upland rice. Upland rice in Brazil is cultivated under diverse climatic conditions and land characteristics. Producers are inclined to spend less on high technology and more for production stability, and to emphasize cultivation in areas where there is less risk of natural disaster and greater potential for yield increases.
