Re-Use, Reduce and Re-Cycle Rice Residues for Climate Smart Agriculture and Soil health in Rice farming systems in East Africa
In East Africa, rice farming faces various challenges mainly low soil fertility and environmental hazard due to low decomposition into compost and poor disposal of husks. Anaerobic conditions created under paddy rice systems cause poor decomposing rice straw residues, resulting in the emission of methane (Greenhouse gases-GHG). Excessive use of N-fertilizers leads to nitrous oxide emissions […]
