    About the conference

    Rural circularity as a national economic development agenda — turning agricultural residues, food and livestock waste, local resources and community enterprise into new industries, jobs and farmer income.

    The question in this room

    How do crop residue, food and livestock waste become new rural industries, jobs and farmer income?

    Why it matters

    Farms produce a vast stream of residue, and much of it is still burnt in the field.

    ~500million tonnes

    of crop residue generated in India every year (MNRE estimate).

    228million tonnes surplus

    not needed for fodder or household fuel, so it is available for other uses.

    about 46% of all residue
    28 GWpower potential

    could be generated from that surplus biomass.

    Source: Ministry of New & Renewable Energy estimates; National Biomass Atlas (Sardar Swaran Singh National Institute of Bio-Energy), as reported by Down To Earth.
