Slide4objective and subjectsTo develop improved water management based on AWD that can always reduce soil-derived CO2-eq emission (CH4 + N2O) during rice growing season from irrigated rice paddies in Asian countries by 30% compared to the conventional practice.
Sbj 1: Field demonstration of AWD effect on reducing GHG emissionsDevelopment of improved water management practice based on AWD in Vietnam,
Thailand, Philippines, and Indonesia
Technical support and integrated analysis of field dataSbj 2: Development of the guidelines for implementing MRV
Collection of scientific information on MRV
Analysis of social and natural limitation factors of AWD
Slide5Stands for Alternate Wetting and Drying.Water saving technique originally developed and being extended by the International Rice Research Institute.Also effective in mitigating paddy CH4 emission due to soil aeration.
What is AWD?
Slide6Stands for Measurement, Reporting, and Verification.A system in which the three processes are integrated to ensure the accuracy of GHG emissions and reductions from a certain project compared to the baseline practice.Basis for a GHG mitigation project driven by carbon pricing, such as carbon tax and market mechanisms.MRV methodology essential to implement such projects has not been well documented for agricultural sector including rice cultivation.
What is MRV?
