North-Eastern India is blessed with a vast diversity of rice genotypes with varying yielding abilities. However, the predominant strong soil acidity induced nutrient stresses from the toxicity of aluminum (Al 3+ ) ions often causes sub-optimal rice productivity. The lack of suitable nutrient media f...
