&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;em&gt;Every year in October, farmers in northern India burn stubble due to lack of alternative ways for its disposal. This leads to heavy pollution in Delhi-NCR before winters. This year too, as farmers begin to set stubble afire, HT travels to Punjab and Haryana for a ground report. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Honking its way down the narrow Taraouri Road, in Haryana&amp;rsquo;s Karnal district, the 16-wheeler truck vanished into a dense cloud of smoke billowing from a field set on fire by its owner to get rid of the paddy stubble left behind after the crop was harvested.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Agricultural stubble &amp;mdash; millions of tonnes &amp;mdash; is burnt by farmers in northern India every October, triggering heavy pollution in Delhi-NCR before the onset of winter.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The annual episode has already begun this year, leaving Delhi residents concerned. The memory of the 2016 smog, triggered primarily by burning of stubble and crackers, is still fresh in their minds.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Though the National Green Tribunal banned crop burning in 2015, implementing the order had been difficult. Farmers set crop residue afire mainly because of cost concerns and the short gap between summer and winter crops. Lack of incentives and equipment to cut the stubble are other issues.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Hindustan Times travelled to Punjab and Haryana for a ground report. In a two-part series, HT also tries to come up with some feasible solutions.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;em&gt;Ground scenario&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Travelling along the National Highway from Delhi to Haryana and then to Punjab, it would be difficult for one to assess the quantum of the problem. But as one travels into the villages, off the NH, the drama unfolds.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Some farmers at Kacchhwa, a remote village in Karnal, were seen harvesting paddy. Others had set their farmlands on fire, leaving behind black ash. Smoke was seen in some farmlands at a distance. Fires were still raging.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Stubble burning has already started. NASA images revealed that red dots &amp;mdash; denoting incidents of fire &amp;mdash; have started appearing almost everywhere in Haryana and Punjab. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In Haryana, Fatehbad, Kaithal, Karnal, Sirsa, Jind reported the maximum number of incidents. In Punjab, reports poured in from Amritsar, Tarn Taran and Patiala.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;ldquo;It is spreading like wildfire. Every farmer waits for his neighbour to light the fire,&amp;rdquo; said a farmer who refused to be named.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;em&gt;Every year in October, farmers in northern India burn stubble due to lack of alternative ways for its disposal. This leads to heavy pollution in Delhi-NCR before winters. This year too, as farmers begin to set stubble afire, HT travels to Punjab and Haryana for a ground report. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Honking its way down the narrow Taraouri Road, in Haryana&amp;rsquo;s Karnal district, the 16-wheeler truck vanished into a dense cloud of smoke billowing from a field set on fire by its owner to get rid of the paddy stubble left behind after the crop was harvested.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Agricultural stubble &amp;mdash; millions of tonnes &amp;mdash; is burnt by farmers in northern India every October, triggering heavy pollution in Delhi-NCR before the onset of winter.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The annual episode has already begun this year, leaving Delhi residents concerned. The memory of the 2016 smog, triggered primarily by burning of stubble and crackers, is still fresh in their minds.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Though the National Green Tribunal banned crop burning in 2015, implementing the order had been difficult. Farmers set crop residue afire mainly because of cost concerns and the short gap between summer and winter crops. Lack of incentives and equipment to cut the stubble are other issues.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Hindustan Times travelled to Punjab and Haryana for a ground report. In a two-part series, HT also tries to come up with some feasible solutions.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;em&gt;Ground scenario&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Travelling along the National Highway from Delhi to Haryana and then to Punjab, it would be difficult for one to assess the quantum of the problem. But as one travels into the villages, off the NH, the drama unfolds.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Some farmers at Kacchhwa, a remote village in Karnal, were seen harvesting paddy. Others had set their farmlands on fire, leaving behind black ash. Smoke was seen in some farmlands at a distance. Fires were still raging.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Stubble burning has already started. NASA images revealed that red dots &amp;mdash; denoting incidents of fire &amp;mdash; have started appearing almost everywhere in Haryana and Punjab. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In Haryana, Fatehbad, Kaithal, Karnal, Sirsa, Jind reported the maximum number of incidents. In Punjab, reports poured in from Amritsar, Tarn Taran and Patiala.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;ldquo;It is spreading like wildfire. Every farmer waits for his neighbour to light the fire,&amp;rdquo; said a farmer who refused to be named.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;em&gt;Every year in October, farmers in northern India burn stubble due to lack of alternative ways for its disposal. This leads to heavy pollution in Delhi-NCR before winters. This year too, as farmers begin to set stubble afire, HT travels to Punjab and Haryana for a ground report. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Honking its way down the narrow Taraouri Road, in Haryana&amp;rsquo;s Karnal district, the 16-wheeler truck vanished into a dense cloud of smoke billowing from a field set on fire by its owner to get rid of the paddy stubble left behind after the crop was harvested.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Agricultural stubble &amp;mdash; millions of tonnes &amp;mdash; is burnt by farmers in northern India every October, triggering heavy pollution in Delhi-NCR before the onset of winter.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The annual episode has already begun this year, leaving Delhi residents concerned. The memory of the 2016 smog, triggered primarily by burning of stubble and crackers, is still fresh in their minds.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;em&gt;Every year in October, farmers in northern India burn stubble due to lack of alternative ways for its disposal. This leads to heavy pollution in Delhi-NCR before winters. This year too, as farmers begin to set stubble afire, HT travels to Punjab and Haryana for a ground report. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Honking its way down the narrow Taraouri Road, in Haryana&amp;rsquo;s Karnal district, the 16-wheeler truck vanished into a dense cloud of smoke billowing from a field set on fire by its owner to get rid of the paddy stubble left behind after the crop was harvested.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Agricultural stubble &amp;mdash; millions of tonnes &amp;mdash; is burnt by farmers in northern India every October, triggering heavy pollution in Delhi-NCR before the onset of winter.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The annual episode has already begun this year, leaving Delhi residents concerned. The memory of the 2016 smog, triggered primarily by burning of stubble and crackers, is still fresh in their minds.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Though the National Green Tribunal banned crop burning in 2015, implementing the order had been difficult.

Stubble burning begins: Hold your breath Delhiites, that deadly smog is coming - Joydeep Thakur and Ritam Halder

-Hindustan Times Every year in October, farmers in northern India burn stubble due to lack of alternative ways for its disposal. This leads to heavy pollution in Delhi-NCR before winters. This year too, as farmers begin to set stubble afire, HT travels to Punjab and Haryana for a ground report. Honking its way down the narrow Taraouri Road, in Haryana’s Karnal district, the 16-wheeler truck vanished into a dense cloud of smoke billowing from a field set on fire by its owner to get rid of the paddy stubble left behind after the crop was harvested. Agricultural stubble — millions of tonnes — is burnt by farmers in northern India every October, triggering heavy pollution in Delhi-NCR before the onset of winter. The annual episode has already begun this year, leaving Delhi residents concerned. The memory of the 2016 smog, triggered primarily by burning of stubble and crackers, is still fresh in their minds. Though the National Green Tribunal banned crop burning in 2015, implementing the order had been difficult. Farmers set crop residue afire mainly because of cost concerns and the short gap between summer and winter crops. Lack of incentives and equipment to cut the stubble are other issues. Hindustan Times travelled to Punjab and Haryana for a ground report. In a two-part series, HT also tries to come up with some feasible solutions. Ground scenario Travelling along the National Highway from Delhi to Haryana and then to Punjab, it would be difficult for one to assess the quantum of the problem. But as one travels into the villages, off the NH, the drama unfolds. Some farmers at Kacchhwa, a remote village in Karnal, were seen harvesting paddy. Others had set their farmlands on fire, leaving behind black ash. Smoke was seen in some farmlands at a distance. Fires were still raging. Stubble burning has already started. NASA images revealed that red dots — denoting incidents of fire — have started appearing almost everywhere in Haryana and Punjab. In Haryana, Fatehbad, Kaithal, Karnal, Sirsa, Jind reported the maximum number of incidents. In Punjab, reports poured in from Amritsar, Tarn Taran and Patiala. “It is spreading like wildfire.
