And the north of india the practice of burning straw off the rise of us has become a major environmental issue over the last couple of years its the cheapest wife of farms to prepare the fields for the next crop but it generates huge amounts of pollution to avoid burning farmers would need machinery which they cant afford but now a new technology could help solve the problem. When job india a land of burning fields. These have become yearly scenes as farmers set fire to straw or left over from their summer rice harvest to make room for their winter crops. The practice is a major contributor to north india severe winter air quality issues and last year pollution levels in new delhi roasted nearly thirty times higher than World Health Organization standard surrendered has been farming in the district of party for fifteen years. But last years pollution crisis led him to rethink his farming practices. Every year we used to burn the straw and it had a negative impact on the environment now the government has put a restriction against this practice and some of us have tried to find a solution for it we want to protect the environment with a. Surrender solution is a chopping machine which he and another farmer invested around two and a half thousand euros in earlier this year that allows them to remove straw easily and put it back in their fields to help with their winter crops. About thirty five kilometers away another alternative to crop burning is in effect straw from nearby farms is chopped up at this local power plant so it can be used as fuel to create electricity the plant uses contractors to collect straw from fields with machines called bayless but there are limitations to how many farms they can cover in such a short window of time. For shanshu club works at the plant and he believes their output could be significantly greater if farmers played a more active role in the process they can buy their own machinery. There should be at least. We can from all the fields. Instead of burning they can mail and supplied to us if they dont burn the fuel. But many farmers are still burning their fields they say they dont have faith in the new methods and that they wont be investing in them until government gives them financial incentive many of these farmers are already in severe debt and until they get the assistance they need they say theres no choice but to set their fields alight. Someone else should solve this problem the government should lift the straw themselves or pay off compensation to clear the fields we are fed up with the situation. Farmers know the environmental consequences of crop burning but as long as it remains the cheapest way for them to clear their fields it will be a long time before more buy into alternative solutions.
