Paddy Farming: If you want to increase the production of your paddy crop while using less chemical fertilizers, hybrid paddy varieties can be the right choice for you. The biggest strength of these varieties is their strong ability to fight diseases, which keeps your crop healthy and improves productivity at a reasonable cost. Although hybrid paddy varieties take a little longer to mature and are somewhat coarser than fine paddy, they often produce much more.
