What is rice stubble?

Rice stubble is the vegetative part of the rice plant (Oryza sativa L.), that remains after the cutting of rice fields during grain harvest or after. Rice stubble burning is a common issue in north India causing the pollution in Delhi to rise multiple levels. The nutrients present in the stubble are wasted in burning.
Burning leads to the ground temperature rising and the soil drying up, necessitating additional water for irrigation.
