The low-carbon rice cultivation model in Thailand's Central Plains enables farmers to reduce fertilizer use and sell carbon credits. Registered farmers can certify their products through the Thailand Greenhouse Gas Management Organisation (TGO).

The 'Khao Chaona Ruamjai' network, the first to receive carbon label certification, demonstrates a successful model for sustainable agriculture and serves as an inspiration for other groups. Farmers adopting alternate wetting and drying methods have reported increased yields and reduced costs. The Rice Department aims to expand low-carbon rice promotion to 1 million rai, targeting export markets in the EU, Singapore, and Australia.
