Abstract
In relation to global warming, a great deal of attention has been paid to methane (CH4 ) emission from paddy fields. The amount of CH4 emitted from paddy fields is now estimated to account for about 12% of the total CH4 emission according to Prather et al. (1995). Harvested area of rough rice in Asia covered 1,320,000 km2 in 1990 and 38% of the area was estimated to be maintained under rainfed conditions (IRRI 1991).Keywords
