Abstract

In this paper, the effects of submergence due to heavy rainfall and river over-flow on rice production in the coastal Barisal region of Bangladesh is investigated. The study plots level data to compare rice yields of cultivars in high and low submergence prone areas and to analyze variation in yield when high-yielding varieties (HYVs) versus local seeds are used. [SANDEE Working Paper, No 80–13].
