Action plan on rice production Mitigation/Adaptation • Climate change mitigation is any action taken to permanently eliminate or reduce the long-term risk and hazards of climate change to human life or property • Climate change adaptation refers to the ability of a system to adjust to climate change (including climate variability and extremes) to moderate potential damage, to take advantage of opportunities, or to cope with the consequences.

Mitigation GHG from Agriculture 2050 , GHG from agriculture will be increased 30% FAO, April 11, 2014

Climate Change Mitigation within the rice agricultural sector • Agriculture causes about 25 % global anthropogenic CO 2 emissions, 65-70 % of CH 4 , and 90 % of N 2 O emissions • Rice paddies contributing about 12% to global CH 4 emissions (second largest after cattle livestock) • Global Warming Potential (GWP): CH 4 – 25 times higher than CO 2 N 2 O – 298 times higher than CO 2

• Rice varieties • Fertilizer • Water management http://www.ibp.ethz.ch (modified)

Conclusion Climate Change Mitigation: Rice systems have to become more efficient in terms of … • Water use • Fertilizer uptake • Harvest index

Adaptation: Rice systems have to become more resilient to … • Drought • Submergence • Salinity • Heat waves By • Germplasm development • Crop management • Cropping system • Resource management and Structures

QUESTION to Restructure Program Sources Measures Need - Too much water - Saving water=> precision - N e w used for rice irrigation system Technology - Too low - Changes the way of rice - New behaviors efficiency of cultivation (less input. less - P r e c i s i o n inputs (fertilizers, w a t e r u s e s . = > h i g h agriculture pesticides, efficiency.) - C-sequence waters) - Re-use rice/ crop residues; mulching/ Bio-char/ Min - Soil degradation tillage - Low C-soil sink - Added values for all - Increase GHG agriculture products & by products

- Low - Replace Rice by other - New comparative crops with reversible techniques? productivity ways - Multiple - Uncertainly - Added values for all cropping income Rice products & by - Investment products - New Marketing Approach

- Sea level - Physical and biological - Modelling rise ways - New behaviors - Weather - Inter-field damps - Good uncertainty prediction - Multiple cropping - Salinity - Mixed cropping - Good - Drought/ investment design - Flooding - Useful - Heat/cool Information/data
