Summary:	"The System of Rice Intensification (SRI) is an innovative approach to paddy cultivation that became popular in India and also in the rest of the rice growing parts of the world less than a decde ago. Over the past few years India has seen a steady decline in agriculture production which has resulted in lower food grain availibility per capita. For a country like India where 23% of the gross cropped area falls under paddy cultivation SRI with its inherent advantages of lesser seed rates, less water requirement, and higher yields that the traditional crop holds great promise for smallholders. This film delves into the experience of farmers in Bihar and Jharkhand who have reaped the benefits of SRI and are now taking the movement to newer families"--From disc container.
