Abstract

Disposal of farm residuals specially cotton and maize stalks and rice straw is still one of the main problems facing Egyptian farmers. The definition of the amount of these residuals is not clear.  Each of the Ministry of Agriculture and the Ministry of Environment estimated it from its point of view. Anyhow, the amount of these residualis at least 35 Mio/ton per year. It represents a big problem for the farmers and negatively affect the surrounding environment where they are disposed of primitive ways by burning illegal. This process is harmful not only for the environment but also for the Human. Storage also is a dangerous process because of the fire danger. In the other hand, it is a good habitat for plant pathogens and vectors. The good thinking is to improve the economic situation of these residuals. Some experts were done for the disposal of it in the form of fuel briquettes bio eco-friendly high economic return operations.
