Agricultural waste management strategies for environmental sustainability.

TL;DR: The main component of the crop residue and agro-industrial waste is cellulose, followed by lignin and hemicellulose (lignocellulosic biomass), which can also serve as a sustainable source of biofuel and bioenergy in order to mitigate the fossil fuel shortage and climate change issues as mentioned in this paper.
