Potential greenhouse gas emissions and fertiliser material losses from rice straw management failure. Review
I. Nengah Muliarta
Abstract: Agriculture is one of the sectors that contribute to the increase in global emissions, starting from the land preparation process to the post-harvest process. The burning of rice straw is a form of failure in agricultural waste management and is one of the sources of global emissions in rice cultivation activities. Failure in the rice straw management process not only contributes to increased greenhouse area contributes to global warming by contributing gas emissions reaching 14,906.6 kg CO2, 354.29 gas emissions but also loss of fertilizer materials. The activity of burning rice straw in a one-ha kg CO, 132.73 kg PM (particulate matter), 31.65 kg NOx, 20.42 kg SO2 and 12.25 kg CH4. Failure to manage rice straw in the form of burning has also caused a loss of compost in a 1-ha area of 5.11 t. If rice straw is processed into compost, it can reduce the use of inorganic fertilizer, which is one form of application of the concept of low external input sustainable agriculture (LEISA). Rice straw management in principle is also a form of implementing a circular economy and efforts to realize sustainable agriculture.
