Abstract:

Rice-duck farming is a new type of ecological farming mode for sustainable development, which could increase the rice yield, enhance the quality of rice and duck meat, control weeds and pests in the paddy field, improve the soil texture and reduce the comprehensive greenhouse effect. It is an effective farming mode for the development of recycling agriculture and food safety. In this paper, the mechanism, application status and key technical points of rice-duck farming were introduced, and its economic and environmental effects were reviewed, to provide references for the popularization and application of rice-duck farming.

Key words: rice-duck farming, principle, technical points, protection of farmland ecological system
