Abstract
Rice-based cropping systems are common in many Asian and African countries, but the sustainability of these systems is threatened by declining soil fertility and increased pest pressure. This study evaluates the impact of different rice-based crop rotation systems on soil nutrient levels, pest populations, and rice yield. Field experiments were conducted with various crop rotation treatments, including rice-maize, rice-legume, and rice-wheat systems. The results showed that rice-legume rotations significantly enhanced soil fertility, reduced pest populations, and improved rice yields compared to monocropping. The findings support the potential of integrated crop management practices to enhance sustainability in rice farming.
