Abstract: Disease, insect pest, and weed are the major constraints on rice production. The practice of using biodiversity to control these constraints is in accord with the idea of sustainable agricultural development. In recent years, the studies of using biodiversity technology to control rice disease, insect pest and weed grew up quickly in China. This review summarized the research achievement and progress in China on the disease-, insect pest-, and weed control by using resistance gene resources in rice breeding, integrative riceduck farming, organic rice farming, and bio-ingredients. Suggestions for further study on this subject were proposed. The use of rich genetic resources of rice for resistance varieties by traditional breeding program, and of molecular biology technique should be strengthened. Further study on the use of ecosystem diversity for disease-, insect pest- and weed control of rice production, and on the compatibility or antagonism of various biodiversity methods would be very helpful to develop a technical package for sustainable rice production.
