Factors Influencing N2O Emissions of Major Vegetable Cropping Systems in Peri-Urban Hanoi, Vietnam
Journal Title: International Journal of Life Science and Agriculture Research - Year 2022, Vol 1, Issue 3
Abstract
Crop management practices in intensive vegetable production can influence nitrous oxide emissions from soils. This study investigated emission factors from different vegetable management practices. Interviews were conducted with 60 vegetable farmers to identify practices including soil management, nitrogen fertiliser use and irrigation in Vannoi and Dangxa communes in the Hanoi peri-urban area. Practices responsible for high N2O emissions were overuse of nitrogen fertilisers and furrow irrigation. An improvement in farmers’ adoption of best practices in fertiliser application and irrigation could reduce emissions without affecting crop productivity.
