Di: Ava

1. Introduction Paddy rice cultivation with paddy field irrigation has multi-functional roles not only to provide food securely but also to maintain other functions 1. History and Multi-functionality of Agriculture in Korea Paddy farming that produces rice, the main staple food for Koreans is known to be started in the Korean peninsula in the pre-historic era. A series of archeological works revealed: Traditional rural landscapes emerged from the long term interaction of the natural and anthropogenic environment. These landscapes are now threatened by drastic social-ecological changes. Recent international trends on sustaining cultural landscapes place great emphasis on understanding of multiple values, presented in the landscape, by considering

The multi-functionality of paddy farming has become a hot issue recently. Paddy farming provides numerous ecosystem services that are crucial to human well-being. However, evaluation of the contribution of paddy farming to human well-being usually focus on its economic value, while its non-market services are usually ignored. Only evaluating the market profits or market relative There are ten archaeologically excavated rice paddy fields in Korea. The two oldest are the Okhyun and Yaumdong sites, found in Ulsan, dating to the early Mumun pottery period. [25] Paddy field farming goes back thousands of years in Korea. A pit-house at the Daecheon-ni site yielded carbonized rice grains and radiocarbon dates, indicating that rice cultivation in dry Abstract Paddy rice is the staple food in Taiwan, where rice farming always plays an important role in agricultural activities. The paddy fields and irrigation activities hold di-versified functions, such as production, eco-environmental and living-associated functions. This paper is to provide in-formation regarding the potential magnitude and monetary value of seven functions of paddy

Evaluation of Beneficial Function for Organic Paddy Farming in Korea ...

Especially, organic paddy farming will be predicted to have higher values of beneficial function than conventional paddy farming. But most people do not know how much beneficial values has been embedded, even though they have recognized there is a beneficial side in paddy farming including organic farming. Studies have indicated that after the application of paddy-upland rotation, the adverse effects in the long-term-flooded paddy fields have shown slight improvements, such as increased soil granular structure and capillary porosity, improved redox potential of soil, and removed secondary gleization.

We analyze this with the life cycle assessment model FARM (Flow Analysis and Resource Management) developed at the Thünen Institute of Organic Farming. The results can be used to derive compensation payments for organic farmers in South Korea.

We should evaluate the characteristics of multi-functionality of paddy farming correctly and transmit them to the people of Western countries under quite different conditions of upland fields.

Such a study may include researches on status of rice paddy farming, trends in rice paddy production, pollution into and from rice paddy, traditional rice paddy management, wildlife which live on rice paddy and the ecological functions of rice paddy, as well as agricultural policy and laws relevant to rice paddy.

Recently, free trade of farm land, changes of agricultural policy and global climate changes have resulted a significant reduction of rice planting area and the multifunctionality values of paddy field in Taiwan. This study aims to evaluate the temporal changes of multifunctionality benefit of two major rice paddy plains in Taiwan. The main agricultural This will affect people’s choices for or against paddy farming activities and people’s opt for invest or not invest in it. A comprehensive evaluation of paddy farming can provide an important reference for the government and society to conserve the multi-functionality of paddy farming and achieve sustainable development.

Multifunctionality of paddy fields in Taiwan

The multi-functionality of paddy farming has become a hot issue recently. Paddy farming provides numerous ecosystem services that are crucial to human The International Network for Water and Ecosystem in Paddy Fields (INWEPF) was established in 2004 to address the three challenges by promoting dialogues, exchanging knowledge and experiences, developing synergy among various stakeholders and strengthening capacity building in agricultural water management in paddy fields with due consideration of environmental Abstract In order to reflect ecosystem services in environmental policies, it is necessary to assess multiple ecosystem services as well as the correlations among them in complex urban landscapes. Although landscape multifunctionality based on different land use statuses and intensity cause variations in the ecosystem services of complex urban landscapes, research

This paper presents a study carried out by a group of Japanese researchers to critically review past researches and discussions on the multifunctionality of paddy rice cultivation, with the aim of describing the current status of the subject and providing options and potentials for future research and practices. The review was of over 200 documented articles on the major In the symposium, delegates from each country besides Japan made presentations related 2 themes, „Participatory Water Management and Multi-functionality in Paddy Fields“, „Water Quality and Environmental Conservation in Paddy Fields“ and participants had a lively discussion about multi-functionality in paddy fields and environmental conservation. The results suggested that the pH change of paddy soils after flooding and drainage can be predicted as a function of routinely-measured soil properties and flooding or drainage time, and this could be exploited to improve the understanding of globally important processes in the upper soil layers, such as carbon sequestration

Agricultural land is an important ecosystem that is essential for human life, and rice paddies, in particular, provide many ecosystem services such as food production and the maintenance of biodiversity. Although the value of rice paddy wetlands is high, they are rapidly disappearing due to urbanization and development. This study aims to estimate the monetary value of the rice cs of multi-functionality of paddy farming correctly and transmit them to the people of Western countries. This is especially true for Taiwan because the agricultural sector is so tied in with the conservation of the local

Abstract Indonesian national food sovereignty is very dependent on the supply of rice from paddy fields in Java Island. Various factors influence the farmer’s decision to continue using his farm. This study aims to analyze the sustainable use of paddy field, determinant factors and strategies for improving sustainability. Paddy-upland rotation is an unavoidable cropping system for Asia to meet the increasing demand for food. The reduction in grain yields has increased the research interest on the soil properties of rice-based cropping systems. Paddy-upland rotation fields are unique from other wetland or upland soils, because they are associated with frequent cycling between wetting and drying Aizaki et al. [35] used CVM to measure the economic value of the multi-functionality of agriculture and rural areas in Japan.

The scope includes the paddy-farming related scientific and technological aspects in agricultural engineering such as irrigation and drainage, soil and water conservation, land and water resources management, paddy multi-functionality, agricultural policy, regional planning, bioenvironmental systems, and ecological conservation and restoration [5] T.

This paper reviews research on the ecosystem services or multifunctionality of paddy rice cultivation in Japan, focusing on biodiversity as a basis for ecosystem services, with the aim of

Every spring, tourists are invited to plant rice seedlings in the small rice paddy that surrounds the pavilion. In the fall, visitors harvest the rice and thatch the roof of the pavilion with the rice straw.

Except for Korea, Taiwan, and Japan, there are slightly different notions on multifunctionality in other monsoon Asia countries, but the gap in this notion is reducing following recent Paddy fields are flooded fields used to cultivate rice that represent an important element in the socio-economic and environmental systems of many areas. This self-administered course illustrates the different multi-functional roles of paddy fields, which include, among the others, important regulating services (e.g. mitigation of soil erosion, flood control, conservation of
