Data were examined for 2 genotype categories (TDK1-Sub1, Other) in 3 environment groups (Favourable, Drought, and Submergence), with 22 farms per group used as replicates. Farmers saved seeds of TDK1-Sub1, planted it again in flood-prone fields, and disseminated its seeds to relatives, neighbours and friends, but they did not do so in areas with lower flood risk.

Under Submergence, the grain yield of TDK1-Sub1 (2.22 t ha<sup>−1</sup>) was significantly higher than the Other genotype (1.65 t ha<sup>−1</sup>; P < 0.10).

Submergence-tolerant genotypes should enhance system intensification and food security in submergence-prone areas, but yields of other locally-preferred genotypes were more stable in the absence of submergence, especially under late-season drought. Current efforts to introgress additional resistances into submergence-tolerant genotypes are worthwhile, to reduce any downside risk in the absence of flooding.

The agricultural production systems are highly vulnerable in the region and is primarily dominated by small and marginal farmers with intensive farming practices that had favored the loss of carbon (C) from soil. This review discusses the potential of soil and crop management practices such as minimum/reduced/no-tillage, use of organic manure, balanced and integrated plant nutrient application, precision land levelling, precision water and pest management, residue management, and cropping system optimization to maintain the C-equilibrium between soil and atmosphere and to enhance the C-sequestration in the long run. Results of meta-analysis show a potential 36% increase in soil organic C stock in the top 0–15 cm layer in this region which amounts to ∼18 Mg C stocks ha<sup>−1</sup>. Improved management practices across crops and environment may reduce methane em0ission by 12% resulting in an 8% reduction in global warming potential (GWP), while non-submerged condition led to a 51% GWP reduction in rice. Conservation agriculture and precision fertilization also reduced GWP by 11 and 14%, respectively. Although several innovative climate resilient technologies having significant potential for C-sequestration have been developed, there is an urgent need for their scaling and accelerated adoption to increase soil C-sequestration. Policies and programs need to be devised for incentivizing farmers to adopt more C-neutral or C-positive agricultural practices. The national governments and other agencies should work towards C farming together with global initiatives such as the “4 per 1000” Initiative and Global Soil Partnership, and regional public-private partnership initiatives on carbon credits for Regenerative Agriculture such as by Grow Indigo-CIMMYT-ICAR in India, in addition to research and policy changes.

Farmers are reluctant to apply recommended fertilizer doses, as rainfall and crop responses are unreliable. This paper examines fertilizer response, and considers opportunities to improve the risk profile. The effects of 12 fertilizer-water-genotype treatment combinations were examined across 60 locations, and combined analysis of variance and pattern analysis was used to examine crop response and its relationship to soil fertility, genotype, and climatic variability. The results showed there was little relationship between soil test and grain yield in unfertilized plots, suggesting nutrient release and capture were more important than soil nutrient concentration, so integrative measures of soil nutrient release should be more promising. Despite low yield in the absence of applied nutrients (0.89–2.66, mean 2.18 t ha<sup>-1</sup>), NPK alone increased yields by 1.0 t ha<sup>-1</sup> on average (1.48–3.86, mean 3.12 t ha<sup>-1</sup>), while water and genotype together with NPK increased yields by up to a further 1.0 t ha<sup>-1</sup> (1.95–4.76, mean 3.42 t ha<sup>-1</sup>). Fertilizer responses were greater and more reliable when soil nutrient buffering capacity was greater, which, together with seasonal expectations, could be used to better inform decisions on fertilizer application in relation to risk.

Given that wheat is known to tolerate drought better than rice, we compare rice and wheat (cv. Weebill) to understand the species level differences in drought adaptive mechanisms. We also compare two contrasting rice genotypes (IR64, drought susceptible, and Apo, drought tolerant) for such mechanisms under well-watered (100% field capacity, 100%FC) and water-limited (60%FC) conditions. The reduction in biomass of wheat under water limitation was smaller due to a higher rate of photosynthesis associated with maintenance of tissue turgor compared to rice genotypes. Drought caused greater inhibition of Photosystem II quantum efficiency, carboxylation efficiency, and photosynthetic capacity parameters in IR64 than in Apo. Transcript levels of photosynthesis-related genes were also significantly more repressed by water limitation in IR64, whilst the wheat genotype showed smaller reduction than Apo. Despite higher non-photochemical quenching (NPQ), a smaller increase in scavenging enzymes in IR64 resulted in more accumulation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in 60%FC than in 100%FC compared to Apo. As a photoprotection mechanism, increased levels of NPQ resulted in lower ROS accumulation in wheat despite the similar increase in scavenging enzyme transcript levels as in Apo, signifying the importance of preventing oxidative burst for enhanced drought tolerance. In Apo, upregulation of the 9<em>-cis-epoxycarotenoid dioxygenase 2</em> gene implies the use of xanthophyll pool for the ABA biosynthesis. Our data suggest that regulating photosynthesis and oxidative protection in the wheat genotype enhanced drought tolerance.
