Harmony below the Surface: Fish, Soil, and the Battle against Methane in Rice?Fish Cultivation

Lee Chang

In the quest for sustainable agricultural practices, traditional wisdom often holds valuable lessons. The Agriculture Heritage Rice–Fish System, a time-tested agricultural approach, combines rice cultivation with the coexistence of fish in paddy fields. Beyond its well-known benefits for food production, recent research has unveiled an unexpected ecological advantage: the role of fish in mediating surface soil methane oxidation. In this article, we dive into this fascinating discovery and explore its implications for sustainable agriculture and environmental conservation.
