Impacts of climate change on rice production in Africa and causes of simulated yield changes [PDF]
This study is the first of its kind to quantify possible effects of climate change on rice production in Africa. We simulated impacts on rice in irrigated systems (dry season and wet season) and rainfed systems (upland and lowland).

A tale of two countries: Spatial and temporal patterns of rice productivity in China and Brazil [PDF]
This paper looks at differences in spatial and temporal variation of rice yields in China and Brazil. We find that rice yields in China have converged over time and that rice production has become more and more homogeneous.

Selectividad de herbicidas y control de malas hierbas en arroz (Oryza sativa L.) regado por aspersión [PDF]
Sprinkler irrigation can reduce the irrigation water needed to grow rice. However, most available information on weed control with herbicides is related to flood irrigated rice because this is the main growing method.
