Climate-Smart Implementation Promoting climate-smart water technologies and innovations for sustainable water resources and rice production under climate change in the Lancang-Mekong Region
The Stockholm Environment Institute (SEI) conducted a training workshop in April 2024 in Nakhon Ratchasima, Thailand, to introduce laser-controlled land leveling to rice farmers. This precision agriculture technology aims to mitigate drought vulnerability by optimizing water distribution, reducing runoff, and improving crop yields. The project tested the technology in both rain-fed (Phimai District) and irrigated (Sung Noen District) environments, while noting that high initial costs and technical requirements may hinder adoption for small-scale farmers without financial support.
