Abstract: It is proved that the variety of representable idempotent commutative residuated lattices is locally finite. The $ n$-generated subdirectly irreducible algebras in this variety are shown to have at most $ 3n+1$ elements each. A constructive characterization of the subdirectly irreducible algebras is provided, with some applications. The main result implies that every finitely based extension of positive relevance logic containing the mingle and Gödel-Dummett axioms has a solvable deducibility problem.
