Sub - Director Farmers Welfare and Agriculture Development has appealed to the farmers of the district not to burn the remaining harvest after harvest. He said that burning of Narwai increases the temperature of the land and destroys the fertilizer power of the land, and due to the hardening of the surface of the land, the water holding capacity is reduced due to higher energy consumption in the tillage. In the same way, green fodder of animals is destroyed as well as earthworms living in soil and other beneficial micro-organisms as well as friend insect spider, snake, gross hopper etc. He appealed the farmers not to burn the kernels in the fields, collect it in the pit and make manure or run the rotavator and mix the naravai in the soil.
