Rice Crop Manager Odisha: CGIAR Innovation Packages and Scaling Readiness (IPSR) Innovation Profile

Rice Crop Manager is designed for use by extension workers, crop advisors, input providers, and agricultural service providers who interview farmers using a personal computer, smartphone, or tablet. Collected information is then transmitted via the Internet to the RCM ‘model', which calculates and transmits a crop management guideline for the rice-based cropping system within moments back to the computer, smartphone, or tablet. Each guideline provides an actionable and unique recommendation for the rice crop, which matches the location-specific cropping practices and needs of the farmer.
