Rice and fish are one of the main sources of nourishment and income for many people around the world. Standing water in rice fields promotes the development of a teeming ecosystem with aquatic life such as fish, where fish are grown concurrently or alternately with rice. This system called ‘Rice-Fish Culture System’ offers many social, economic and environmental benefits. Farmers can increase their income because the rice yield is higher, and an additional income is generated from the fish sales. Environmentally, with this practice farmers save on fertilizers and pesticides because fish eat insects maintaining a perfect ecological balance that improves biodiversity. The TECA Platform contains a wide range of practices that promote field practices from different parts of the world. All practices have been tested by farmers on their farms for several years with positive results.
