Publication Open Access Greenhouse Gas Mitigation Strategies for Lowland Rice Cultivation under Common Farm Practices, and Accompanying Influencing Factors for Acceptability among Local Farmers in Myanmar(2025) Myo Thet Tin; Amnat Chidthaisong; Nathsuda Pumijumnong; Noppol Arunrat; Monthira Yuttithamand Abatement cost) while still maintaining an acceptable rice yield. To do so, methane (CH4) and nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions, and grain yields from rice fields were explored, under different farmer fertilizer application methods and two different crop... establishment options currently practiced by local farmers, namely transplanted rice (TPR) and wet bed direct seeded rice (WDSR). Both were measured in field experiments. In this study, it was found that rice cultivation emitted CH4 and N2O at the rate of 3.23±0Publication Metadata only Alternative cropping systems for greenhouse gases mitigation in rice field: a case study in Phichit province of Thailand(2016-10-01) Noppol Arunrat; Can Wang; Nathsuda Pumijumnong; Tsinghua University; Faculty of Environment and Resource Studies, Mahidol Universityabatement potential is −7.34 ton CO2eq ha−1, the negative abatement cost is −2161.11 Baht ha−1and the negative MAC is −294.48 Baht ton−1CO2eq.

We review previous studies to determine the factors affecting SOC dynamics in sandy paddy fields, in order to enhance SOC and sustain rice yields. High sand content, up to 50% sand, was found in 70...© 2020 by the authors. Soil organic carbon (SOC) improvement has become a sustainable strategy for enhancing soil resilience and reducing greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions in the rice cropping system. For tropical soils, the SOC accumulationPublication Metadata only Reprint of Alternative cropping systems for greenhouse gases mitigation in rice field: a case study in Phichit province of Thailand(2016-10-15) Noppol Arunrat; Can Wang; Nathsuda Pumijumnong; Tsinghua University; Faculty of Environment and Resource Studies, Mahidol Universityabatement potential is −7.34 ton CO2eq ha−1, the negative abatement cost is −2161.11 Baht ha−1and the negative MAC is −294.48 Baht ton−1CO2eq.

Nitrogen (N) is the most important nutrient for rice yield and is required in large quantities. In this article, the Erosion Productivity Impact Calculator... (EPIC) 0509 version was used and was run using i-EPIC (interactive EPIC) interface, to validate this version and evaluate N losses in mineral rice soils. The results indicated that N losses of rice soil in terms of N loss in sediment, nitrate (N03) lossPublication Metadata only Practices for reducing greenhouse gas emissions from rice production in northeast Thailand(2017-03-01) Noppol Arunrat; Nathsuda Pumijumnong; Hokkaido University; Faculty of Environment and Resource Studies, Mahidol University(potash, K2O) fertilizer application rate is the most significant factor explaining rice yield and SOCSR. The burning of rice residues in the field was the main factor determining GHGI in this area.
