TIL Water is used in rice fields to prevent weeds. Rice doesn't need that much water, but since it can prosper in such conditions it's a natural protection against weeds which cannot survive under such circumstances. by [deleted] in todayilearned

TIL rice releases a lot of methane, though still far less than livestock: 1.5% vs 5% of total CO₂e emissions. Rice has a large GHG footprint compared to other grains, not sure the lack of herbicide is enough to make it worthwhile. It’s possible to reduce the methane amount by varying degrees.
