Digestate in paddy soil – methane emission and carbon sequestration
International Journal of Recycling of Organic Waste in AgriculturePurpose: Soils are the largest store of carbon in the biosphere, but soils can also act as the key sources of greenhouse gases. Rice cultivation in paddy soil is anoxic, thus creating an optimal condition for methane production.
