Rice is life: scientific perspectives for the 21st century

Rice is now the staple food for over half of the world's population, but its production faces many constraints under conditions of increasing world population. Besides being an essential food, rice is also an impact factor in enriching culture, lifestyles and ecosystem functions. These proceedings of the World Rice Research Conference, held in Tsukuba, Japan 2004, contain the state of the art in rice science and production and should be useful to rice scientists, extension specialists, development agents, and policymakers who will use this to better the lives of all humans, but especially those of poor farmers and customers.
