Answer :

Hazardous waste is waste that poses a severe threat to human health or the environment if improperly disposed of. According to the EPA, a substance is a hazardous waste if it appears on specific lists of hazardous waste or exhibits the established characteristics of hazardous waste. Hazardous waste is regulated under the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA).

Agricultural waste is waste produced as a result of various agricultural operations. It includes manure and other wastes from farms, poultry houses and slaughterhouses; harvest waste; fertilizer run- off from fields; pesticides that enter into water, air or soils; and salt and silt drained from fields.
