Explanation:

SRI supports reduced and controlled water application as one of its principles.
Other principles are early, quick and healthy plant establishment (transplantation); reduced plant density and improved soil conditions through enrichment with organic matter.
Based on these principles, farmers can adapt recommended SRI practices to respond to their agroecological and socioeconomic conditions. S
RI principles and practices have been adapted for rainfed rice as well as for other crops (such as wheat, sugarcane and tef, among others), with yield increases and associated economic benefits.
