Farming Tips: Adopt new technology in farming! You will earn a lot even after wheat harvesting
Farmers are now utilizing straw reaper machines to convert post-harvest wheat residue into valuable straw, providing an additional income source and reducing environmental hazards associated with stubble burning. These machines efficiently cut, thresh, and clean straw in a single operation, enhancing productivity and promoting sustainable farming practices.
Wheat, the main crop of the Rabi season, is now fully ready and farmers have started harvesting it rapidly. Traditionally, after harvesting wheat, farmers used to take out only the grain and burn the crop residue considering it useless. But now times have changed. With the help of modern machines, farmers can convert this leftover residue into straw and make it another source of income. Straw is not just limited to
animal feed, but it is also used in the paper and cardboard industry.
Machines like straw reapers are helping farmers to make the most of crop residue. This not only maintains the fertility of the elds, but also prevents problems like re. Now new avenues of income are opening up for farmers even after harvesting.
Traditionally, the stubble left in the eld after harvesting was burnt, which caused huge damage to the environment and also reduced the fertility of the soil. But now a machine called straw reaper has become the solution to this problem. It is attached to the tractor and picks up the crop residue spread in the eld, cuts it into small pieces and turns it into straw. Farmers can earn additional income by selling this straw. About 10 quintals of straw can be obtained from one acre of land, which can be sold at a good price in the market.
Double benefit from grains and animal feed Straw reaper not only helps in making straw, but also collects those wheat ears during harvesting, which would have fallen in the field and become useless. In this way, about 70-80 kg of extra wheat can also be obtained from one acre of land, which will double the benet to the farmers. At the same time, straw is an important fodder for cattle farmers, so that they can give proper nutrition to their cattle. Overall, by making proper use of straw after wheat harvesting, farmers can increase their income and also protect the environment.
