DID YOU KNOW? Wetlands are critically important ecosystems that contribute to biodiversity, climate mitigation & adaptation and more. Yet they remain under threat. Over the past 50 years, over 30% of the world's wetlands have been destroyed by human activity. #WorldWetlandsDay

𝑼𝒑𝒍𝒂𝒏𝒅 𝑹𝒊𝒄𝒆 𝑷𝒓𝒐𝒎𝒐𝒕𝒊𝒐𝒏 By championing the adoption of high-yielding, resilient upland rice varieties that grow on dry soil, we help reduce dependence on flooded paddies. This reduces encroachment of the wetlands by rice-growing communities.

𝑰𝒏𝒕𝒆𝒓𝒎𝒊𝒕𝒕𝒆𝒏𝒕 𝑾𝒂𝒕𝒆𝒓𝒊𝒏𝒈 We empower rice farmers to use controlled cycles of water supply instead of a continuous flooding of the paddy fields. Regulating water levels in wetlands prevents prolonged flooding or excessive drying, which disrupt wetland ecosystems

𝑹𝒂𝒕𝒐𝒐𝒏 𝑹𝒊𝒄𝒆 𝑪𝒖𝒍𝒕𝒊𝒗𝒂𝒕𝒊𝒐𝒏 This refers to the practice of re-growing rice from the stubble of a previous harvest. By minimizing soil disturbance, ratooning helps preserve wetland ecosystems, reduces emissions from soil, and lowers water usage
