Agriculture waste management and bioresource. The circular economy perspective
"This book will emphasize the generation of agricultural waste and provide insight into various options in managing the waste, including composting, vermicomposting to form manure, and biogas generation. This is a step towards sustainable development and creating a greener planet. Recovery of resources from agricultural waste is a step towards the management of agricultural waste in a sustainable manner and reducing burden on the resources of the earth. Such measures are a part of recycling and circular economy where waste from one sector is converted to another useful product in the form of bio fertilizers and energy. The wastes produced are generally left in the fields or are burned which further leads to air and land pollution. If managed properly, this problem and its manifestation such as smog generation which is an emerging environmental issue, can be tackled. Nutrient recovery or energy recovery from this waste will also be helpful in solving the energy crisis to some extent. The runoff from fields is a source of water pollution and eutrophication. If the resource recovery concept is followed it will create a solution of tackling the waste at the source of generation."
