Burning Ricefield In Aklan

Burning Ricefield In Aklan

Photo above shows one of the duly harvested ricefields in Aklan. This burning adds to global warming. Moreover, the farmers are destroying one of their valuable resources. Burning the straw destroys plant nutrients, organic matters, and makes the soil barren. It also kills useful insects which are effective biological control of insect pests. /MP
