Driving successful initiatives to quell stubble burning
This article discusses the problem of smog and poor Air Quality Index (AQI) in northern India during winters, caused by stubble burning. The government has taken measures such as using satellite imagery to locate stubble burning and imposing fines. However, some farmers reject the machinery provided by the government due to high diesel consumption, lack of trained operators, and poor performance. On the other hand, villages like Ransih Kalan and Mathura have successfully implemented measures to stop stubble burning by connecting farmers with local industries that convert biomass into biofuels.
