Yield gap analysis towards meeting future rice demand

Yield gap analysis towards meeting future rice demandRice provides 20% of the worlds food energy, and increased rice production owing to growing demand needs to be derived mainly from existing agricultural land. This requires reducing the yield gap, which is defined as the difference between potential yield and average on farm yield obtained by farmers. In this chapter, we provide case studies of yield gap analyses using different benchmarks (potential yield, experimental yield and best farmers yield)
