Ammonium nitrate is used for paddy rice because microbial bacteria decompose ammonium nitrate into nitrogen gas so nitrogen gas does not remain useful for plants.
Methane baby!
from us oil fields
The burning of any fossil fuels emits carbon dioxide, a greenhouse gas.
Methane is produced by farming activities as it is produced by anaerobic microorganisms growing in the mud in paddy fields and so as the population is increasing so is the number of farming activities happening
methane..
Rice field (paddy fields) emit methane - a potent greenhouse gas. Estimates of global methane emission rates from rice fields range from 20 to 100 million tons per year.
Cattle belch out a lot of methane (CH4), which is also emitted from rice paddy fields. Scientists are working to improve both these practices with the aim of reducing the amount of methane emitted. Reforestation and afforestation will also remove more carbon dioxide (CO2) from the atmosphere.
Trees and vegetation have to be cleared first when establishing paddy fields. If the land is hilly, then the landscape is terraced (like a series of steps) as paddy fields have to be flooded with water. Each field is dug out and earth is used to build dykes around the edges. Rice paddy fields are a substantial contributor of methane, a powerful greenhouse gas, as organic matter decomposes anaerobicly under the water. So paddy fields do change the environment in several ways.

Rice fields, here in Asia we sometimes use Paddy instead of rice when talking about growing the crop

In paddy fields
paddy fields
when you breathe out,the gas that is emitted is
a Paddy
It is a specialised planter, designed to transplant rice seedlings onto paddy fields
