| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This study emphasis the economic impacts of climate change on rice production in rainfed agriculture regions of rural Vietnam and India. Further, it is also explore the potential agricultural management practices to enhance rice yields in rainfed areas. The key outcomes from household surveys recognized that the farmers are prefer to adopt new management techniques/practices to reduce yield gaps under different situations such as drought, flooding and lowlands (salt intrusion). Our conducted rice crop experiments in the farmers’ field, remarkably provides an opportunity to understand the potential management practices for increasing their crop yields and have a direct impact on society.

| Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
農地で実施した稲作実験は、農民たちに農作物増産のための管理方式を理解する機会を与えた。本研究で画期的な農業管理戦略が確認されれば、農民の生計向上に大きく貢献し、生計の大半を米作に依存する人々の飢えや貧困削減に寄与し、社会に対しても直接的な影響を持つ。また、能力研修や国際会議での発信を通して、学術界・市民社会にも広く成果が共有・普及される。
