It is time for farmers to take the lead in telling their stories and conceptualizing ways to connect their fellow farmers with effective technologies.

In recent years, best management practices and technologies were introduced through the Assessment Institute of Agricultural Technology (AIAT) to encourage farmers to plant rice more than once a year.
