Reducing greenhouse gas emissions in agricultural production
In Vietnam, the agricultural sector accounts for about 30% of the total greenhouse gas emissions nationwide, mainly concentrated in two areas: rice cultivation, and livestock farming. Therefore, reducing greenhouse gas emissions in agricultural production is a major orientation that Quang Binh Province is implementing through appropriate solutions, methods and models.
Circular livestock farming is understood as a production activity with a closed cycle, applying traditional techniques and scientific advances to process by-products and waste in the livestock farming process into useful values, contributing to environmental protection.
In addition, according to the Department of Agriculture and Rural Development of Quang Binh Province, for many years now, farmers have been implementing the improved rice cultivation technique (SRI) — a technical advancement recognised by the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development since 2007.
