This study evaluated the potential of the PhilRice-developed continuous rice hull (CtRH) carbonizer as heat source for processing food products so as to provide additional income opportunities. Specifically, it aimed to (a) determine the actual amount of heat that can be tapped from the...

Rice is a global staple crop, hence a forecast of production and implications on the environment in the face of climate change is needed. In this study, climate projections from 16 General Circulation Models (GCMs) in Coupled Model Intercomparison Project phase 6 (CMIP6) were statistically...

This report focuses on promoting low-carbon rice production systems in Vietnam. There are many sources of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions within the agricultural sector in Vietnam, including along value chains and within the whole agri-food context. However, because rice production is so...

Purpose This paper aims to focus on scrutinizing the economics of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions in Vietnam's rice production sector. Design/methodology/approach Using surveyed data from household rice producers, the smallest available production scale, the author delves into the economics of...

Due to the depletion of petroleum products and fatal emissions from the tailpipe of diesel engines it has become a need to seek for the alternative of petroleum products for long-term use. Currently, researchers and experts have come to the conclusion that biodiesel along with higher alcohols...
