Rice, as a main and strategic food, is cultivated in traditional paddies of MazandaranProvince with hard work, high cost, and low yield. Considering the share of this province in national rice production and its important role in view of socio-economic aspects, implementation of paddy fields consolidation projects is essential to obtain optimum use of soil, water, and labor, and to improve management and productivity of paddy fields. Inasmuch as implementation of such projects as the main infrastructure for increasing rice production requires huge investment, awareness of their performance is essential. In the present research, the characteristics of consolidated paddy fields were compared with those of traditional ones. Based on the results, implementation of this project in the study area increased rice yield per unit area by about 355.7 kg/ha while decreasing one third of the labor requirement.
