Tamil Nadu is India's fifth largest producer of rice, next to West
Bengal, Andhra Pradesh, Punjab and Uttar Pradesh. The Cauvery delta
region of the composite Thanjavur district in the state is known as
the Rice Bowl of South India. Rice is grown in 2.1 million hectares
accounting for about one-third of the gross cropped area under
diverse environments in the state, like; rain-fed tank, tank, tank
cum well, canal (river) and canal (reservoir) irrigation systems.
The rice productivity growth had been declining at the rate of
-0.40 per cent (during period 1990-91 to 1999-00) as the yields of
existing varieties had already been plateauing. Recent
breakthroughs in the development of tropical hybrid rice technology
had how ever provided an alternative option for raising yield
levels for sustained production growth in rice especially in
favourable irrigated eco-systems. A nation-wide network on
Development and Use of Hybrid Rice Technology - initiated by the
ICAR with support from the UNDP, FAO and IRRI. Under this network,
TNAU has released four rice hybrids so far, namely; CORH 1, CORH 2
ADTRH 1 and ADTRH 2.Hence, it was decided to take-up this hybrid
technology impact study.
