: The Malacca state government is planning to initiate a pilot project to cultivate the MR297 padi seed variety that can produce between two and three rice yields per season, on a 36-hectare of padi fields in Sempang here.said the project is expected to start early next year to ensure rice farmers in Malacca receive sufficient supply of seeds.
He said Malacca rice farmers have to source their supplies from outside of Malacca and face difficulties in obtaining the MR297 variety of seeds. Elaborating, Dr Muhamad Akmal said the research conducted at the site found that the variety is highly suitable for cultivation in Sempang which is a water catchment area.
“The seeds of this variety can also survive even with a 20 per cent water deficit in rainfed cultivation areas that rely on rainwater and rivers as compared to cultivation in granary areas with a good irrigation system.
