Agricultural residues
Agricultural residues are the leftover parts of crops after harvest, such as stalks, husks, and leaves. These residues are often considered waste but can be valuable resources. They can be used for producing bioenergy, paper, or animal feed, and can also improve soil health when used as organic matter. Proper management of these residues helps reduce waste, lower environmental impact, and promote sustainable farming practices. Instead of discarded as waste, their effective use supports renewable energy and resource efficiency in agriculture.
