We’re working with about 13,000 farmers to digitize their operations, making them bankable and sustainable, while also reducing water usage by 30% and methane emissions by 50% through practices like alternate wet drying (AWD). I encourage you to create a five-minute introduction video when applying to RISE, as it helps us connect across our diverse workforce. We&apos;re also on track to issue our first carbon credits for rice paddies in February, which will benefit our farmers financially. Let&apos;s work together to transform rice farming and create a more sustainable future!</description></oembed>
