We used a case study approach involving com- parison of farmer practices and improved technologies. This approach allows assessing the impact of technology on pollution, is forward looking, and can yield information on the potential of on-the-shelf technology and provide opportunities for technology development. The approach particularly suits newly developed rice technologies with large potential of reducing nitrogen pollu- tion and for future rice and vegetables technologies. The results showed that substantial reductions in nitrogen pollution are fea- sible for both types of crops.展开更多
