Abstract: This study examines options for managing rice residue and the factors that determine its management in the south-west region of Bangladesh. Study results indicate that while straw length, low-elevation land and distance of the plot from the homestead positively and significantly influence the decision to burn rice residue, residue price has a negative effect.
