Soil
Rice is growing best on alluvial soil and fertile river basins. However, this crop is versatile and can also be grown on mixed soil or loamy and clayey soil as long as enough water and fertilizer are available.
Climate
Temperature between 16°C – 27°C and rainfall 100 cm to 200 cm are ideal for rice growth. However, rainfall during harvest times is harmful. An annual coverage temperature around 24°C is ideal. To germinate, rice seeds need to absorb a certain amount of water to break the dormancy stage of the seed.
