  • Abstract
    Rapid global climate changes these days can no longer be forecasted.Lately in Malaysia heavy rainfall during rainy season is causing the crop lands damaged by the heavy rain thus affecting the paddy field top fertile soil eroded.Most conventional bund cannot sustain this heavy impact. As a result, more poor farmers face huge loss every season. In this paper, a framework design of innovative paddy bund using ceramic stoneware was proposed to combat thesoil loss, area loss and yield the rice production.
