how much of agricultural waste does the world produce in 1 year?(eg, stems,husk,leaves,etc)?

Answer 1

Actually, none. Everything is recycled back into the soil as organic mulch. So far from being the waste that you are talking about the leaves, stems, husks, etc are a valuable byproduct. They increases soil fertility, improves soil texture, and helps reduce soil erosion.

Answer 2

The stems, leaves, husks, etc. are a part of nature and as several of the folks here have mentioned are an important part of the soils make up. The plant remains become organic matter for the soil which provides nutrients for a whole host of microbes and bacteria that flourish in the soil. As a residue cover for the soil this helps to maintain and hold water for plant use. The term "waste" just does not apply here.

Answer 3

I think just being in those categories does not automatically make something waste. A lot of those things can be chopped up into animal feed. Many of the herbs and spices originate as leaves and bark and stems.

I think you need a more careful definition if you want to get some numbers. Even then I doubt you will get authoritative ones.

Answer 4

Probably tons but it is not really waste per say because it is all mulched back into the earth and provides great nutrients required to keep the land productive. without putting back in the land becomes tired and old and unproductive or less productive.
