000212521 520__ $$aThis study investigates the impact of modified System of Rice Intensification (SRI)
training provided by a large-scale private farm on the performance of surrounding
small-scale rice farmers in a rain-fed area in Tanzania. We found that the training
effectively increases the adoption of improved rice cultivation practices, paddy yield,
and profit of rice cultivation by small-holder farmers. In fact, the trainees achieve
paddy yield of 5 tons per hectare on average, which is remarkably high in rain-fed rice
cultivation by any standard. Our results suggest high potential for achieving a rice
Green Revolution in rain-fed areas and the importance of extension services by
large-scale farms.
