Group discussion summary Opportunities for scaling up AWD  • AWD reduces pests and diseases, reduces lodging and reduces water used as compared with farmers’ practice (continuous flooding)  Adoption barriers of applying AWD  • AWD does not increase rice grain yield as compared to farmer practice (continuous flooding)  • Irrigation system comprised of a well and water is always available and free of charge for farmers in the north of Vietnam. The farmers therefore think that they do not need to save water by applying AWD.   • The average size of smallholder farms in the north is very small compared to southern Vietnam (average of 1-3 plots totalling 0.2 ha of rice cultivation per household in the north) • Farmers who live in provinces near big cities also lack the labour needed for monitoring the water level in the rice fields   How to upscale implement AWD   • The DARD said that they want to apply/upscale AWD, but they need the protocol for application and for scaling up AWD from MARD   • AWD should be applied together with other measures such as integrated nutrient & pest management to increase rice grain yields.  The farmers then might adopt AWD.       11 4.

Field trip  Farmers in An Luong village, An Lam commune, Nam Sach district, Hai Duong province reported that AWD decreased the need for the following: pumping times per season, amount of water, labour, and cost for irrigation monitoring staff. AWD also reduced irrigation fees, presence of pests and diseases, and lodging. Importantly, AWD increased rice grain yield by 10%. However, AWD also increased the occurrence of weeds and rats.  An Luong village farmers expressed a positive experience with AWD for several reasons. The main reason is the cooperation among cooperatives, farmers and the pumping station (irrigation service). A new automated irrigation system is also being tested in this place; the system stops irrigation when a certain water level in the field is reached.     13 Annex 1: List of participants by organization CCAFS: Ngo Duc Minh DARD, Hanam Province: Bach Van Huy DWR, MARD: Le Van Chinh Extension Center, Binh Din Province: Nguyen Thi To Tran IAE: Mai Van Trinh, Bui Phuong Loan, Vu Duong Quynh, Nguyen Van Thiet, Vu Dinh Tuan, Dang Anh Minh IPSARD: Tran Dai Nghia IRRI: Ngo Dang Ohong, Michael Adair Sheinkman, Bjoern Ole Sander MARD: Le Hoang Anh  Media: Bui Thi Thury (Communist Party of Vietnam online newspaper, Anh Tho (Rural Economy newspaper), Tran To Nhu (Vietnam News) and Nguyen Thao Bguyen (Dan tri News) VAAS: Nguyen Hong Son  Minh SNV: Bui Van Minh UWR: Nguyen Viet Anh Vietnam National University: Pham Van Cu WB: Cao Thang Binh
