One year before the end of the Fy Vary project, research to develop rice production techniques for its three operating regions including Vakinankaratra, Analamanga and Alaotra-Mangoro was fruitful.
The technique has succeeded in increasing the yield of rice in the central rice fields, which are less productive due to the lack of elements that ensure the growth of rice, especially phosphorus; ; is the P-Dipping technique. A new technique, simple to use, but improved and increased the yield, among the experiments ...
The technique is currently being sensitized in collaboration with the PAPRIZ project and another production company, enabling the application and dissemination of the P-Dipping technique to achieve self-sufficiency in rice, said the general manager of the agriculture at the Ministry of Agriculture, Ramaroson Lantonirina Livestock.
Partnership between the Malagasy government and the Japanese government through JICA and JST for 5 years, the Fy Vary project started in 2017 ...
Another advantage of the project, in addition to P-Dipping, is the possibility for Malagasy researchers to acquire knowledge in Japan ...
There was also the introduction of three new rice seeds, short-lived, increased yields and resistant to climate change. The names of the rice were officially announced during the fifth meeting of the Joint Coordination Committee at the Hotel Colbert Antaninarenina, on October 12, 2021. Signed in the meantime, the provision of equipment, to allow the continuous improvement of the research...
