Growing Australian Rice in Non‐Flooded Soil Increases Water Use Efficiency and Mycorrhizal Colonisation, but Reduces Grain Micronutrient Concentrations

Journal of Sustainable Agriculture and Environment
Climate change is driving a global shift from flooded (anaerobic) to dryland/rainfed (aerobic) rice production. While aerobic systems reduce water use and methane emissions, they can exacerbate soil zinc (Zn) and iron (Fe) deficiencies due to altered ...

Performance of flood-irrigated rice as affected by residual rice straw

Pesquisa Agropecuária Tropical, 2017
Rice is an economically important and widely consumed cereal that achieves high yields under flood-irrigated cultivation. However, the amount of residual straw from the previous year may influence its growth and yield. This study evaluated the performance of flood-irrigated rice as affected by residual rice straw, in a greenhouse.

Speciation of arsenic and concentration of cadmium and arsenic in rice (Oryza sativa L.) cultivated under co-exposure of cadmium/arsenic and different water ponding

Journal of Trace Elements and Minerals
Over three billion people consume rice (Oryza sativa L), an important cereal in the human diet. It is cultivated typically in flooded soils. However, it is also grown in soils with limited water (upland or dryland).

Ecology of flooded rice fields

, 1985
Some of the biological concepts and findings relevant to the study of the flooded rice field as an ecosystem are reviewed. The flooded rice field is an artificial ecosystem characterized by extreme instability resulting from frequent destruction of the environment by farming practices.

National Policy Coherence Counts for Reducing Inequality in Global Climate and Development Agendas

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT International institutions promote policy coherence as crucial to the effective and fair implementation of global sustainability agendas, though the evidence for its benefits is slim. We present here the first systematic cross‐country dataset on the consequences of national government efforts to promote policy coherence for vulnerable groups ...

The Dynamic Impact of the Energy Transition on Food Security in Developing Countries

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In the context of persistent food insecurity and the global push for the transition toward clean energy in developing countries, understanding the association between clean energy access and food affordability is increasingly important to inform multisectoral policy interventions. Against this background, this study explores the dynamic impact

Bridging Efficiency Gaps in Rice Production: A Primal System Analysis of Technical and Allocative Constraints in Bangladesh

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Declining natural resources, rising production costs, and diminishing returns from input‐intensive practices threaten the sustainability of smallholder rice systems in Bangladesh. Using a primal system approach and survey data from 1869 rice‐producing households, this study evaluates technical and allocative inefficiency across major agro ...

A Technology‐First Framework for SDG Implementation in Carbon‐Based Economies: Empirical Evidence and Policy Implications

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Only 17% of Sustainable Development Goal indicators are globally on track, yet the structural conditions explaining this failure remain inadequately theorised for fossil‐fuel‐dependent economies. This study develops and empirically tests a four‐layer loop framework of Technology, Well‐being, Social Equity, and Sustainability closing through ...
