Outline of Final Research Achievements

Beef production is expected to be rapidly increased in Mekong Delta, where is one of the world’s largest rice producing area. The purpose of this study is to establish an integrated system to maximize food production and livelihood and to minimize greenhouse gas(GHG) emissions on the basis of food produced by the integrations of mitigation measures regarding paddy, beef production and biogas, and to demonstrate the effectiveness of the system by a comprehensive environmental impact assessment. GHG emissions in the integrated system was 25% lower than the total of specialized systems. It was mainly due to a reduction of GHG emission from paddy production in the integrated system.
