The TEEB AgriFood analysis focusses on five key rice management practices that promote sustainability were selected to represent the essential compliance requirements of the Sustainable Rice Platform (SRP) Standard (SRP 2023) related to environmental impacts (greenhouse gas emissions reductions and biodiversity conservation). These are: 1. Improved water management; 2. Improved nutrient management; 3. Natural systems of soil fertility enhancement; 4. Integrated pest management; and 5. Elimination of burning of rice straw and stubble.
The TEEB AgriFood analysis in Thailand assesses the responses of several variables in rice system to increased adoption of sustainable practices as promoted by the SRP Standard. The research team developed models to explore four future scenarios, representing progressively expansive adoption of sustainable practices in areas of rice cultivation in the Central and Northeast regions of Thailand from 2022-2050.
