Samba-Sub1, is a submergence tolerant rice (Oryza sativa L) variety, with 135 days maturity period and a very good grain quality, often rated much better than the Samba Mahsuri variety.

The LEAD patron Prof. B.

LEAD Trust identified a progressive farmer in the Sidhnath village of Asiwan, Miangaunj, Unnao to whom a mini kit with the seeds of  Samba-Sub1, enough to cultivate about half acre of field on trial basis was provided absolutely free of cost.
