Crop Residue Management

Use of combine harvesters for harvesting wheat is gaining popularity in the country. The conventional combines are, however, mainly concerned with the grains only. They leave the straw partially uncut and partially ejected back as a swath in the field. To manage the straw from combine harvested wheat fields, a tractor-operated straw chopper-cum-blower was identified which was acquired with the courtesy of Rice Wheat Consortium. In view of field performance of the chopper, the farmers showed their keen interest in its use. To make the machine available in the local market, arrangements have been made for its local manufacturing at three different locations i.e. Daska, Lahore and Multan. SACAN Foundation may help the farming community to procure the quality equipment from reliable manufacturers.
