Agricultural wastes refer to the by-products generated during various agricultural activities. These residues include crop residues, animal manure, and other organic materials. While initially seen as waste, they hold significant potential for recycling and reuse. Crop residues, such as stalks and leaves, can be used for mulching or as organic fertilizers, enhancing soil fertility. Animal manure serves as a valuable organic fertilizer, contributing to nutrient-rich soil. Efficient management of agricultural wastes is essential to minimize environmental impact. Techniques like composting and bioenergy production can transform these residues into valuable resources. Additionally, agricultural waste management plays a crucial role in mitigating pollution and promoting sustainable farming practices. Adopting innovative approaches to harness the energy and nutrient content of these wastes can contribute to a more environmentally friendly and economically viable agricultural sector.
