Sustainable Rice Straw Management

Beschreibung

This open access book on straw management aims to provide a wide array of options for rice straw management that are potentially more sustainable, environmental, and profitable compared to current practice. The book is authored by expert researchers, engineers and innovators working on a range of straw management options with case studies from Vietnam, the Philippines and Cambodia.
The book is written for engineers and researchers in order to provide them information on current good practice and the gaps and constraints that require further research and innovation. The book is also aimed at extension workers and farmers to help them decide on the best alternative straw management options in their area by presenting both the technological options as well as the value chains and business models required to make them work.
The book will also be useful for policy makers, required by public opinion to reduce greenhouse gas emissions andair pollution, looking for research-based evidence to guide the policies they develop and implement.

“The book will be helpful to the engineers and researchers working in the discipline of rice-straw management. In addition, the book may draw a wider readership from the graduate and undergraduate students, faculty members, field managers having interest in environmental sciences, agronomy and soil sciences. … the book can be a great contribution to the applied science research and the value-chain based business models can be proved to be an eye opener for the sustainable rice-straw management for different countries.” (Vipin Kumar Singh, Pardeep Singh and Rishikesh Singh, Journal of Cleaner Production, Vol. 272, 2020)
