here is your answer
Agricultural waste is defined as the outcome of agricultural production following the
different harvesting activities. It includes manure, crop residues and other waste
from farms, poultry houses and slaughterhouses, harvest waste, fertilizer run-off
from field, pesticides that enter into water, air or soils and salt and silt drained from
field. With the introduction of technology in the agricultural processes, waste has
become a burden because of its ability to damage and pollute the environment.
The main problems facing rural areas today are agricultural waste, sewage and
municipal solid waste. India generates about 350 million tonnes of agricultural waste
every year. The type and quantity of agricultural waste in the country vary from
village to village because farmers cultivate the most profitable crops suited to their
fields and follow affordable practices. Many farmers now view the practice of residue
utilization as an extra cost with small returns, and that the best way in to get rid of
the residues by dumping, open burning, etc. For example, burning of paddy and
wheat straw in the fields generates many hazardous gases which not only cause
global warming and threaten human living on the planet. The hazards to the
environment of such practices can no longer be ignored.
Though attempts have been made to the utilization of agricultural waste for
composting and / or animal fodder, and none of them has been implemented in a
sustainable form. Several factors have aggravated problem including the absence of
environmental awareness and low level of knowledge and skills affecting the
behaviour of farmers in handling agricultural waste.
Attitudes must change to create wealth from agricultural waste and foster the idea
of considering crop residues and its utilization as an integral part of agricultural
production. There are many new approaches and methods for utilizing crop residues
that have become attractive and profitable such as composting, animal fodder and
energy production. Several research and development programs are underway in
India and other countries to use biomass. On the national level, there are many
efforts particularly those of the Ministry of Agriculture & Farmers Welfare and the
Ministry of Ministry of Environment, Forest and Climate Change. Government of
India to find solutions for the problem and avoid environmental degradation. Those
efforts must be encouraged, increased and implemented on large scale.
