Climate, Yield, and Welfare Impacts of Green Super Rice

Green Super Rice has the potential to significantly reduce greenhouse gas emissions from rice cultivation, but reaching its effectiveness depends on farmer behavior and the incentives they face. In this pilot study in the Philippines, researchers will develop and test interventions to encourage the adoption of Green Super Rice varieties and to encourage the accompanying behaviors that can maximize climate benefits. Researchers will also develop and test methods for measuring impacts on emissions and on agricultural outcomes.
