Abstract

Greece and China are two agricultural countries in which a significant percentage of their biomass consists of agricultural and livestock wastes. In Greece, the management practice that is still applied is burning the majority of the agricultural residues in the field, while in China large amount of untreated agricultural waste causes serious adverse effects on the rural living environment. Residual biomass could arise from the agricultural sector in the form of crop residues and of animal wastes.
