The publication encapsulates the findings of a need and readiness survey conducted in the eight APO member economies Bangladesh, the Republic of China, India, Indonesia, the Republic of Korea (ROK), Pakistan, the Philippines, and Thailand. [...] The ROC With the support of the Ministry of Science and Technology Program and the National High-Speed Network and Computing Center, the windy webpage ( ), which currently APO MEMBERS’ NEED AND READINESS FOR CLIMATE-SMART AGRICULTURE TECHNOLOGIES | 19 SURVEY RESULTS has the highest resolution of 1 km in the ROC, was constructed. [...] 20 | APO MEMBERS’ NEED AND READINESS FOR CLIMATE-SMART AGRICULTURE TECHNOLOGIES SURVEY RESULTS Carbon Credit Trading and Emission Reduction Program for the Agricultural Sector The availability of a national carbon credit trading mechanism; a voluntary emission reduction program for the agricultural sector; and types of agricultural projects registered in the mechanism and the program in the eight. [...] Indonesia, the ROC, the ROK, and Thailand Both the MRV system and the GHG VVB are there in Indonesia, the ROC, the ROK, and Thailand. [...] The methodology, “AG-005 extension of mid-season drainage period in rice cultivation,” developed by the COE on CSA and the Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry, and Fisheries of Japan was registered as one of the agricultural methodologies in the J-Credit Scheme, a scheme set up in 2013 by the government of Japan to certify the amount of GHG emission reductions and removals in the country, in March 2.
