The project on Greenhouse gas Mitigation in Irrigated Rice Systems in Asia (MIRSA) seeks to develop an improved water management, based on alternate wetting and drying (AWD), that can always reduce soil-derived CO2-eq emissions (CH4 + N2O) during the rice growing season from irrigated rice paddies, by 30% compared to the conventional practice.
To achieve this objective, simultaneous experimental field demonstration trials are being conducted in Thailand, Vietnam, Indonesia, and the Philippines to assess the site-specific feasibility of AWD as a mitigation option for CH4+N2O emissions from irrigated rice fields. Project activities
