Hybrid rice + innovations: a path forward for climate-smart agriculture
Rice, while a staple food for half of the world’s population, is also a significant contributor to greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, primarily methane and nitrous oxide. With rice cultivation accounting for nearly 48% of all GHG emissions from croplands, solutions are urgently needed to address this global environmental challenge. A comprehensive study highlights hybrid rice enhanced by breeding and agronomic innovations as a promising avenue to reduce emissions while ensuring food security.
