The space technology-based spectrum has the potential to revolutionise the monitoring of Uma rice cultivation, reducing the need for extensive fieldwork, labour and costs, Girish Gopinath said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>U Surendran led the counterpart team of scientists from CWRDM. The study, titled \u201cDevelopment of Spectral Library for Hyper-spectral Data with Special Emphasis on Paddy,\u201d was funded by the Kerala State Council for Science, Technology, and Environment with a grant of \u20b983.5 lakh.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Stress-tolerant, high-yielding variety<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p>Uma rice, also known as \u2018unda rice\u2019, characterised by its round shape and sticky texture, is a popular rice variety released from Mancompu research station of Kerala Agricultural University in 1998. Uma variety has been preferred in Kuttanad since it\u2019s launching due to its high yield and stress tolerance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Eventually, it became the most commonly grown variety in Kerala. It holds a special place in Kerala\u2019s culinary landscape, contributing to the State\u2019s diverse food culture. Despite the challenges posed by climate change and associated extreme events in paddy cultivation in Kerala, Uma rice remains a staple.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This library facilitates precise assessments of the spatial distribution of the Uma variety in specific locations, understanding its current growth stage, and assessing influences of water or nutrient stress. Additionally, it enables yield estimations through the utilisation of remote-sensing image.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The spectrum has potential to revolutionise the monitoring of rice cultivation.
