Visiting student position – Data extraction for Rice production


The Sustainable Agricultural Systems & Engineering Lab (SASE; https://www.tomcwanger.com) at Westlake University has initiated the China Rice Network (CRN; www.chinaricenetwork.org) in 2021 to understand diversification effects on rice production systems across China.

Rice is a staple food for more than half of the global human population and is primarily produced in Asia, with China being the most important producer. In this project, we aim to investigate the effect of diversification strategy on the ecological, social, and economic aspects of rice production. Diversification strategy has shown the potential to improve the sustainability and resilience of food production and provide a scientific basis for sustainable agricultural development. Scientists have conducted extensive and intensive research in rice, and a variety of diversification strategy measures such as crop rotation and intercropping have been adopted in rice production. We build on the existing work on the effects of diversification strategy measures in rice production by creating a database to understand the benefits of diversification in rice production.

We are looking for several visiting students to help with the data extraction for the rice database. This offers a great opportunity for the students to work with our rice project. The position will be based in the SASE lab in Hangzhou, China. You can also participate remotely if it’s necessary. You will get training before starting the data extraction. Your main work will be Extracting Data from rice literatures.
