Efficacy of Homeopathic Medicines on Rice Plant (oryza Sativa) Growth and Disease Management – a Systematic Review
Year: 2026
Type: preprint
Study design: Systematic Review
Abstract: This study is a systematic review, that aims to evaluate the effectiveness of homeopathic medicines in rice (Oryza sativa). Rice is one of the world's most important food crops, and various homeopathic preparations have been investigated for their potential effects on seed germination, plant growth, yield, disease management, and stress tolerance. However, the available evidence is scattered across individual studies and has not yet been comprehensively synthesized. The review will systematically identify, appraise, and synthesize experimental studies examining homeopathic interventions in rice plants. Eligible studies will be identified through searches of electronic databases and relevant grey literature sources. Data on study characteristics, interventions, outcomes, and methodological quality will be extracted and analyzed. The findings will provide an evidence-based assessment of the effectiveness and consistency of reported homeopathic effects in rice cultivation and identify areas requiring further research.
