Now, farmers are using rice straw more productively.
However, there is limited information on the techno-economic aspect of rice straw
collection machines. This study conducted an analysis of energy
consumption (EC), greenhouse gas emissions (GHGE), and cost of
rice straw collection in the MD of Vietnam. It resulted in profiles
of the researched factors (EC, GHGE, and cost) of this practice in
the context of using off-field straw for further processing, such as
biogas and mushroom production, considered within the research.
