WITH THE beginning of the paddy harvesting season in Punjab, the farmers have also started burning crop stubble in the fields. The Punjab government is due to appear before the National Green Tribunal (NGT) to explain why it has been unable to control paddy stubble burning.
According to the experts, an all-round aggressive approach is needed on behalf of the government, scientists and farmers to curb burning of crop stubbles. These may include adoption of ‘straw management technologies’, putting in place stringent law and spreading awareness of its bad effects among farmers.
Punjab grows paddy in some 28-29 lakh hectares (lh), but this kharif season (transplanting in June and harvesting in October) over 30 lakh hectares are under paddy cultivation. The crop produces an estimated 20 million tonnes of straw, of which about 75 to 80 per cent were being burnt till two years ago. Last year, that number dropped marginally.
According to the experts, burning of straw burns out 1 lakh tonnes of nitrogen, 0.5 lakh tonnes of phosphorus and 2.5 lakh tonnes of potash in the soil over the 29-30 lakh hectares in which paddy is grown in the state annually.
