Ways to mitigate greenhouse gas production from rice cultivation

by 27-30 times and 273 times over 100 years, respectively. Addressing this environmental challenge necessitates exploring technical approaches and management strategies to curb gas emissions while sustaining rice yields. Several critical factors have been identified and analyzed for their potential to mitigate greenhouse gas production during rice cultivation. These include water management, fertilizer management, biochar application, cultivar selection, straw management, modified planting methods, and integration of new energy machinery. A comprehensive understanding and implementation of these methods can contribute significantly to achieving a dual objective: reducing emissions and maintaining optimal rice yields. Looking ahead, a synergistic integration of these diverse methods and management approaches holds promise for more effective results. Furthermore, the intricate water networks associated with rice cultivation should be carefully considered in the overall strategy. By adopting a holistic approach that addresses both emission reduction and sustainable water usage, the future of rice cultivation can be shaped to align with environmental stewardship and food security.
