Crop Residue
FIELD RESIDUE Crop residues are materials left in
an agricultural field or orchard after the crop has been harvested. These residues include stalks and stubble (stems),leaves, and seed pods.

Crop ResidueProcess Residues Those materials left after the
processing of the crop into a usable resource. These residues include husks, seeds, bagasse and roots. They can be used as animal fodder and soil amendments, fertilizers and in manufacturing.

Mulch
Any material used at the surface of a soil primarily to prevent loss of water by evaporation, to keep down weeds, to dampen temperature fluctuations or to promote soil productivity.

HISTORY Practice well known to gardener As old as Agriculture itself Word “Mulch” has been used since 17th
century German vernacular “molsch” meaning soft or
beginning to decay Since 1802 the practice of spreading a mulch
on the soil surface has referred as mulching.

Crop Residue as Mulch
It is defined as the technology whereby at the time of crop emergence at least 30% of the soil surface is covered by organic residues of the previous crop.
30% threshold originated in the USA It is also known as conservation tillage

STUBBLE MULCHING
Refers to leaving the stubble (agriculture) essentially in place on the land as a surface cover during a fallow period. Stubble-mulching can prevent erosion from wind or water and conserve soil moisture.

STUBBLE MULCH TILLAGE It also called mulch tillage is any
tillage system that retains a high percentage of crop residue on the surface of the soil.
This type of tillage system was developed to control the wind erosion that was prevalent on the Great Plains during the 1930s.

MECHANIZED STUBBLE MULCHING The multiple rice cropping system has
existed in southern China for a long time. Such system includes rape-rape-rice rotation, wheat-rice rotation, two-harvest rice and green manure-rice etc. A practical problem is the high stubble-mulch can be hardly overturned by human and animal labor or conventional tillage machines.

MECHANIZED STUBBLE MULCHING… It shows the basic structure, work
mechanism and test results of the stubble-mulch roto-cultivator for boat tractor. The complete working unit can realize moderate tillage of paddy fields, return to stubbles fields and solve the puzzle existed in the tillage of paddy fields with moder technique. It is a new technique of mechanized protective cultivation.

CONCLUSION
Norton(1944) said that seedbed preparation and sowing could be done in half of the time and with three quarters of the expenditure of energy used in the conventional plowing system.
