AbstractThis study of Cropping patterns on low land soils fields based on rice, is essentially a review of current literature. Cropping patterns is the yearly sequence and the agronomic practice on crops and fallow in one year. By low land rice field are meant both rainted and irrigated rice fields. Crops production can be increased by cropping intensity on low land rice fields. It means growing crops more than one time in one year. Major factors to be considered in deciding cropping patterns on low land rice soils are availability of water, availability of labour and equipment for agricultural activities, crop variety differences and market availability. Cropping patterns on low land rice soils in South Asian Countries are different, depending on its climate, especially rainfall.
