Abstract:
Rice is the most vital food crop in India. The cultivation of rice produces two forms of residues which are called straw and husk. Crop residue is very useful resource of energy but unfortunately it is being burnt by farmers. Time duration for preparing the field for next seasonal crop like wheat is very limited and burning is the simplest option for the farmers to clear the field. Crop residue burning produces deep impacts on environment as well as on the farms. In this paper, problems arising out for not adopting the proper methods of disposing paddy residue are discussed. Also various methods which are being currently used by the farmers for using the crop residue effectively without causing any pollution are discussed. A web based model for effective disposal of paddy residue has also been proposed. This model provides on-line platform for three stakeholders viz., farmers (producer), straw buyer and the custom hiring center for dissemination of information related to paddy residue.
