Methane Emission in a Small-Scale Rice Field under Two Different Water Management Strategies – An Insight for Landscape Level Adjustments

Year: 2024

Type: article

Abstract: emissions, with intensive global rice production.Agriculture is the second-largest sector contributing to greenhouse gas emissions, responsible for 24% globally, following the energy sector, which accounts for 35% of emissions [IPCC, 2014].Rice production is a significant contributor to methane (CH 4 ) emissions, ranking second only to enteric fermentation among agricultural operations.Methane emissions from agriculture are primarily responsible for 22% of global anthropogenic agricultural emissions, according to Smartt et al. [2016].Methane emissions contribute to over 90% of the GWP in rice farming systems.Rice cultivation has a larger GWP compared to Methane Emission in a Small-Scale Rice Field under Two Different Water Management Strategies -An Insight for Landscape Level Adjustments
