description Agriculture is the backbone of Bangladesh, contributing 13% to the country’s GDP and ensuring food security for millions.

However, rice monocropping—particularly long-duration Aman rice—limits farmers' ability to diversify and intensify their land’s potential, leaving fields fallow between two rice crops.
