Abstract

Understanding the relationship between rice yield and carbon footprint (CF) is crucial for optimizing nutrient management in rice production system. Identifying the primary constraints in rice production and determining how these factors influence both yield and CF can help design more effective strategies for sustainable agricultural practices. However, quantitative research on this relationship is still scarce, particularly in regions like Northeast China, one of the most important rice-producing regions.
