Introduction
Present status of crop residue management
Crop residue as a component of INM
As the crop residues may interfere with tillage and seeding operations for the next crop, many farmers prefer to burn the residues left in the field that lead to air pollution and wastage of nutrients.
Farmers have been burning large quantities of crop residues, particularly in areas with high yield potential.
