1 Sustainable Management of Ricebased Production Systems in Indonesia D Manzanilla, G Singleton, Y Kato, K Heyashi, R Buresh, C Vera-Cruz, R Indrastuti and D Johnson Jakarta, February 2015

2 ICRR-IRRI partnership under CURE Activities on-going WG1 (drought-prone) WG2 (flood-prone) WG3 (saline [coastal]) WG4 (upland) Review & SC Meeting in 2013

3 CURE WG1/WG2 IN INDONESIA RECENT MAIN ACTIVITY SITES WG1: Drought-prone target = 2.1 Mha WG2: Swamps, Flood-prone target = 0.7 Mha (+unused land) Rice in the drought-prone and swampy areas outside Java is important

4 Drought-tolerant rice: ICRR-IRRI achievements Evaluated existing irrigated rice for drought adaptability INPARI10 (moderately tolerant), INPARI23 & 15 (blast resistant) INPARI19 (drought escape; short-duration) Introducing IR64 drought-tol NILs (Molecular Products) IR B (6.0 t ha -1 ) performed better than IR64 (4.3 t ha -1 )

5 Flood-tolerant rice: ICRR-IRRI achievements Introducing Sub1 Survival after 2 wks flood Ciherang-Sub1 released in 2012 as INPARI30 INPARA3 (IR CPA-12-UBN ) is getting popular in swampy areas (Sub1+Fe toxic. tol.) INPARA8 released in 2014 (Submergence+SF tol.) Sub1 Variety distribution from ICRR in INPARI kg INPARA kg IWETRI further distributed 25 t in 2013, 40 t in 2014

6 CURE WG3: SALT-AFFECTED AREA Elite IRRI lines for the coastal area Entry Salinity Score Vegetative Generative IR B-29-2B IR B-18-2B IR B IR B AJY1 3 5 IR77664-B AJY1 3 5 IR B-18-2B Salinity Tolerant Varieties released in 2014 INPARI34 Salin Agritan (IR78788-B-B AJY1) INPARI35 Salin Agritan (CSR-90IR-2) IR B AJY1 Coastal area, Indramayu

7 CURE WG4: UPLAND RICE IN INDONESIA Pakpak B. Lampung Indramayu Humid zone Current area: 1.26 Mha Potential area: 5 Mha Area for intercropping: 2 Mha (forest, estate crops) Cianjur Kebumen Arid zone Varieties must be tolerant of multiple stresses High elevation: Low temp (low altitude:20-25 o C; high altitude: o C), Blast Intercropping: Shading, Blast, Sheath Blight, Brown Spots

8 Upland rice varieties selected though PVS of CURE (URRC) that were released in Indonesia Variety Year of release No. Pedigee Maturity (days) Plant height (cm) No. tillers Texture of cooked rice 1 Important Characteristics 2 INPAGO TB490C-TB S Bl, Al INPAGO B11338F-TB S Bl, Dr INPAGO IR30176-B-2-MR M Bl, Al INPAGO B12498E-MR S Bl, Red rice INPAGO TB409B-TB S Bl, Al, Dr INPAGO B12151D-MR M Bl, Al, Dr INPAGO Bl, Al, Dr 1,2 H: hard; M: medium; S: soft; Bl: bast resistant; Dr: drought tolerant; Al: aluminium toxicity toterant Dr. Suwarno, ICRR

24 Sumatra 2 million ha rice production; South Sumatra produced 4.9 million t in 2014 Tidal deltas Telang and Saleh important production areas >100,000 ha Labor, rats, weeds a challenge for dry season

25

26 Achievements Impact Dry season 2012 only 30 ha of rice in dry season because of rodent, weed and labor In 2013, set up demonstrations of weed and rodent management including use of drum seeder. Strong response from provincial government; funds to support farmers Dry season ha of rice grown Dry season 2015 plan to grow 500 ha

27 Achievements Impact Promotion of flat bed dryers building on earlier collaborative research Now more than 50 units in the delta managed by local rice millers

28 New technology 2015: Solar Bubble Dryer Slide courtesy of Martin Gummert

29 Priorities for Indonesia IRRI Partnerships Raising resource use efficiencies (labor, inputs, water and land) and sustainability (esp. pests) in favorable areas Closing yield gaps and raising productivity in less favorable and stress prone areas (outer islands) Development and selection of stress tolerant rice varieties Support with local solutions, outreach, decision support Capacity building in rice science for next generation
