Why Rice ?
Rice is the world’s most
Price control
important staple crop. It is
the second largest crop in
terms of harvested area after
Sustainable development
20 countries in Asia produce wheat, but is by far the most
90% (654Mt) of global production
87% (142Mha) of the rice crop area important in terms of human
consumption (FAOSTAT 2012).
Food security
❑ Changes in rice production and availability can cause food crises and grain price variation
❑ Meeting future increases in demand for rice is challenged by increasing climatic variability which limits
yields especially in developing countries.
❑ Sustainable production should meet GHG emission and water use taking into account local cultural
importance

Mixtools analysis
Automated statistical technique to identify
“main modes” of the distribution of SoS
and EoS → Rice Sesons
Results
Comparison of the planting and harvesting dates between RICA and RiceAtlas.
SoS EoS
Each circle indicates a single (sub) region; the area of the circle is the log10 value of
the rice area in that (sub) region corresponding to RiceAtlas.

Conclusions and
Future Work
Asia wide rice crop calendar
❑ We process 2003 – 2016 MODIS timeseries with PhenoRice
algorithm to generate pixel level SoS and EoS maps
❑ Appropriate data handling was developed to generate regular
hexagon crop calendar by spatially and temporally averaging multi-
year pixel level planting (SoS) and harvesting (EoS) date estimates
❑ RICA V0
❑ First Asia wide HR rice crop calendar → reflects local spatial variations
❑ Provides multi season information for each unit
❑ @administrative level is in agreement with Rice Atlas
❑ The dataset is under analysis in collaboration with IRRI to perform
expert base assessment to
❑ validate it at local scale
❑ identify potential artefacts
❑ Perform further refinement (mask and specific region rules)
Conclusions and
Future Work
Multi-year analysis
❑ 2003 -2016 hexagon level estimates can be exploit for multi-year
analysis
❑ A preliminary methodology was implemented to attribute each
detection to the more plausible crop season (needed to perform “trend” analysis)
❑ The dataset generated can be of help to identify rice dynamics
❑ in relation to land use changes (crop intensification, expansion…)
❑ consequence of agro-practices (e.g. varietal changes)
❑ effect of climate/environmental process (e.g. rainfed monsoon)
❑ Hot spot of anomalous behaviour
❑ Assessment/validation ongoing
❑ Exploitation of expert knowledge (collaboration with IRRI)
❑ Investigation of publications and/or grey literature
