Increase of CH4 emission in No-tillage Paddy Soil during Rice Cultivation

Research background Recently, no-till systems (NT) have been used in paddy field in

some eastern Asian countries and several studies were carried

out to investigate the relationship between methane emission and

tillage management. Most of previous studies reported that

seasonal CH4 fluxes were decreased by more than 50% due to

reduced mineralization of organic matter in NT soils. However,

long-term NT might stimulate more CH4 emission during rice

cultivation due to increased accumulation of total organic carbon

in paddy soil.

The objective of this study was to determine the effect of two different tillage

systems : conventional tillage (CT) and no-tillage (NT) on CH4 emissions in paddy soil

during rice cultivation.

Conventional tillage system could significantly affect CH4 emission. In contrast, no-tillage reduced CH4 emission during rice cultivation only in a short term period.

Aside from the improvement of soil physical properties, continued no-tillage practice was more effective than conventional tillage to accumulate more organic matter in soil.

Increased accumulation of soil organic carbon may had provided more methanogenic substrates as hot water extractable C that enhanced more methanogenic activity during rice cultivation and increased CH4 emission.

Long-term no-tillage investigations are needed to firmly establish the other factors for the occurrence of higher CH4 emissions with no-tillage practices in paddy soils.
