> Hello everyone

> Is the highest SRI plot around??

> This SRI was grown by Mr Singha Buddha (pictured) at ATA's
> demonstration and education Centre in Madana VDC, Dapka-9 in southern
> Humla district, Mid-western Nepal. The farm is located at 2500m
> (7820ft). The picture was taken in August - the original plot was
> planted in April but the chickens eat the seedlings so was re-planted
> in May with 30-day old seedlings (3 leaf stage - seedlings grow slower
> at the high altitude). It was weeded 3 time (once with a hand hoe,
> twice by hand-pulling). After planting it was 6 weeks until the
> monsoon, still it was only watered three times - once every 2 weeks.
> Not bad for a first attempt....
