<em>A sudden spike in farm fires has prompted Delhi chief minister Arvind Kejriwal to write to his Haryana and Punjab counterparts.<br />
<br />
New Delhi: </em>With the arrival of the paddy harvesting season, there has been a sharp increase in the number of farm fires reported in Punjab. There were 107 fires between September 24 and 26 this year compared to just 11 in the same period last year, according to a report in The Hindu, an increase of almost ten times.<br />
<br />
The higher number of fires is comparable to the figures reported in 2016 and 2017, when between September 27 and September 30, there were 106 and 150 fires respectively. Last year, due to the monsoon lasting much longer, the harvest was delayed, resulting in a decrease in the number of fires.<br />
<br />
Krunesh Garg, member-secretary of the Punjab Pollution Control Board told The Hindu, &ldquo;This year, harvesting of basmati varieties of rice has already begun and so the apparent rise in September.&rdquo;<br />
<br />
Crop burning is a common practice across Haryana and Punjab. To ready their fields for the rabi crop, farmers set fire to their fields to burn the stubble that remains after paddy has been harvested. It is known to worsen air pollution, especially in the National Capital Region. The trend picks up in late September, peaking towards the end of October.<br />

A sudden spike in farm fires has prompted Delhi chief minister Arvind Kejriwal to write to his Haryana and Punjab counterparts.
New Delhi: With the arrival of the paddy harvesting season, there has been a sharp increase in the number of farm fires reported in Punjab. There were 107 fires between September 24 and 26 this year compared to just 11 in the same period last year, according to a report in The Hindu, an increase of almost ten times.
The higher number of fires is comparable to the figures reported in 2016 and 2017, when between September 27 and September 30, there were 106 and 150 fires respectively. Last year, due to the monsoon lasting much longer, the harvest was delayed, resulting in a decrease in the number of fires.
Krunesh Garg, member-secretary of the Punjab Pollution Control Board told The Hindu, “This year, harvesting of basmati varieties of rice has already begun and so the apparent rise in September.”
Crop burning is a common practice across Haryana and Punjab. To ready their fields for the rabi crop, farmers set fire to their fields to burn the stubble that remains after paddy has been harvested. It is known to worsen air pollution, especially in the National Capital Region. The trend picks up in late September, peaking towards the end of October.
