Under global warming, the differences in yield, soil nutrients, and economic benefits between various planting patterns in double-cropping rice areas were compared, and the high-yield and high-efficiency planting patterns that can adapt to climate change were selected. Four planting patterns, namely rape–rice (RaR), fallow–rice (FR), Chinese milk vetch–early rice–late rice (CRR), and fallow–early rice–late rice (FRR), were investigated. Compared with FRR, the yield of early rice increased by 13.6% using the CRR rotation. CRR could increase the spikelet per panicle of early rice, thereby enhancing rice yield. The soil’s available nitrogen content demonstrated an increase under the CRR rotation when compared with FRR. The yield under RaR increased by 11.9% on average compared with FR. The RaR rotation enhanced panicles per ha, thereby increasing rice yield. RaR could increase the soil’s available nutrient content compared with FR. Compared with CRR, FRR, and FR, the net income of RaR was higher by 1031 CNY/ha, 2046 CNY/ha and 5762 CNY/ha, respectively. Comprehensively compared with the other three planting patterns, RaR could effectively improve the soil fertility of paddy fields, grain yield, and net income. RaR is a sustainable planting pattern with a high yield and high efficiency worth popularizing. In addition, under the warming climate, the growth period and sowing date of rice of RaR and FR should be appropriately extended and postponed to avoid encountering more frequent high-temperature weather.
