CALCULATING THE CARBON FOOTPRINT OF RICE PRODUCTION IN VIETNAM AND FORMULATING A PROPOSAL FOR MITIGATION OPTIONS

This study aims to develop a method for calculating the carbon footprint of rice during its life cycle by combining Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) and the 2006 Guideline of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) for National Greenhouse Gas Inventories (GL 2006) for paddy rice grown in Phu[r]

This research is located within the smart city discourse and explores the linkage between smart buildings and an intelligent community, employing the University of Cape Town as a case study. It is also situated within the research stream of Green Information Systems, which examines the confluence be[r]

The xanthan gum is an exopolysaccharide of the microbial origin, produced by the bacteria of the Xanthomonas spp. In the present study Xanthomonas spp were obtained from cabbage leaves and lemon sample.

System of Rice Intensification (SRI) with weed management is an imperative to convince the today’s crop production in a sustainable way. Due to scarcity of water and energy, the weed competition is going to be the major constraint in achieving higher production in transplanted rice. System of Rice I[r]

Economic cooperation in small-scale forestry production is needed in the context of globalization and cooperation. Farmers or farms are often limited by access to resources as well as input and output information for their products. While they have land and labor for production. On the other hand, t[r]

In this study, we investigate in the use of software-based GNSS receiver to detect ionospheric scintillation in Vietnam. Ionospheric scintillation is well-known for its bad effect on the precision of GNSS receivers. Vietnam locates at a low-lattitude region which is one of the most-affected region i[r]

If everyone in the world lived as we do in the UK, we would need three planets to support us. This means that we are consuming two extra planets’ worth of resources. But even after we’ve reduced our personal footprints as far as we can – which o[r]

In the Gujarat State, rice occupies about 7 to 8 per cent of the gross cropped area and accounts for about 14.00 per cent of the total food grain production. Pre harvest forecast may provide useful information to agriculturalists, administration offices and merchants. In the current study statistica[r]

The present study attempt to provide credible estimates of future production of food grains (rice, wheat, coarse cereals, sugar cane and pulses) by testing differences in the production of different food grains, trend analysis and Correlation coefficient. It is estimated the correlation between the[r]

Chapter 16 - The factors of production. In this chapter you will learn: How to define the factors of production and their contribution to output? How to graph demand and supply curves for a factor of production? How to find the equilibrium price and quantity for a factor of production? What the effe[r]

Nanotechnology in particular carbon nanomaterials, such as carbon nanotubes (CNTs) and graphene, is both technologically and commercially important. This is clearly seen from the amount of scientific and production activities in the last two decades. Carbon nanomaterials have been portrayed as the m[r]

The paper examines the relationship between employment and economic growth during the period 1991–2012 in Vietnam and obtains forecasts for employment from 2013 to 2020, using theories of production function for establishment of econometric models.

Carbon sequestration is the most important and necessary for good crop production under climate change from the agricultural soils. The increase in gaseous concentration of carbon dioxide, methane and various other gases results decreased crop production, change in soil chemical and biological prope[r]

Livestock production system is a contributor to the climate change. Responding to the challenge of climate change requires formulation of appropriate long term adaptation strategies and mitigation options for the livestock sector.
