    Ricci curvature is a very important tool in manifold theory. In this paper, the authors investigate the projective Ricci curvature. Also, the authors have introduced the notion of projectively Ricci-flat sprays. They establish a global rigidity result for projectively Ricci-flat sprays with nonnegative Ricci curvature. Finally, they characterize projectively Ricci-flat Randers metrics. The paper contains also interesting examples and in the final section, the Riemannian case is also analyzed.
