The UK Centre for Ecology & Hydrology has initiated a groundbreaking trial of growing rice in the rewetted peatlands of the Cambridgeshire Fens as part of the AgZero+ programme, marking the first time rice is cultivated on UK farmland. This project, led by Professor Richard Pywell, aims to explore agricultural adaptation to climate change by testing nine cold-hardy rice varieties alongside other crops on rewetted peat to assess their viability under waterlogged conditions, while measuring carbon stocks, GHG emissions, water use, crop yields, and biodiversity impacts.
