PROBLEM STATEMENT:
Agricultural waste in spite of being organic is not being utilized properly. It is being ignored since it is not considered as a resource for any commercially important products. The majority portion of crop waste is burnt which leads to economic loss , environmental pollution, reduction of microbial activity in soil and growth of pests and pathogens.
