The global climate system began posing risks forhuman and natural systems on all continents and across oceans. It is therefore essential to identify and adopt solutions that sustainably increase rice productionandstrengthen crops’ resilience to climate variabilities. The ecosystem-based crop managementtechnique of the System of Rice Intensification (SRI) is an alternativesolution in environmental development plans.In line with the need of developing climate-smart farming management, this narrativereviewaims toaddress to SRI adoption as atransition to more productive, inclusive and sustainable agriculture that promotes the use of climate-resilient crops. Thereview providedevidence that SRI is beneficial toaddress sustainable agricultural practices and enhance resilience against climate change. In conclusion, SRI-based paddy farming responds to the need fora sound functioning of agriculture management and build climate resilience.
