Well, in China, there are numerous ways to preserve rice straw. According to an online article written in English about the utilization of rice straw in Zhoujia Town, Dianjiang County, Chongqing City, or 重庆市垫江县周嘉镇 in Chinese, which is in the southwestern China, it mentioned that "The high-quality straw has been purchased by liquor factories to make yeast for distillers, while straw of lesser quality will be processed into cushions, which glass and steel factories badly need.”
And “In addition, Dianjiang also seeks to process straw into animal feed or organic fertilizers. Six feed factories and two fertilizer factories are now under construction. Once they are built, they are expected to consume about 23,000 tons of straw per year combined.”
