Although rice canopy structure is a critical factor that influences rice yield and quality, few research have been conducted on the effects of rice-duck farming on rice canopy structure. Canopy structure characteristics at tillering and full-heading stages of late rice were compared in a field experiment between rice-duck farming and...

Currently, world agriculture is faced with drastic challenges to produce sufficient food while minimizing negative environmental effects of crop cultivation. Unlike traditional agriculture, which used local biodiversity and species interactions to sustain food production, modern agriculture uses fewer high-yield crop varieties and largely ignores species interactions. Modern agriculture relies on...
