Yes No

Crop rotation My prefecture's rotation program has been implemented.

Yes No

The field remains without plant cover during the winter season.

Yes No

Crop residue management Crop residue burning (stubble)

Yes No

Slope (%) Organic substance percentage (%) Crop residue is burned during the winter months and measures are taken to avoid fire. For areas within 500 meters of radius from forests or ecologically sensitive areas, special permission is obtained from the Fire Department.

Yes No

Combustion takes place in ecologically sensitive areas

Yes No

Crop residue is being used as renewable energy resources in the domestic sector (fireplaces, wood-burning stovs) or their post-parting integration into compost piles.
