Making too much of something (or making it too early) creates other types of waste. Overproduction is of particular concern because it exacerbates transportation, inventory, and motion wastes. Producing more of a product than can be consumed at the time creates the waste of overproduction. Thus allowing farmers the freedom to choose and manage their own land can lead to a waste of resources in a number of ways.

Waste from over-production: Too much of a crop might mean that some will not be sold.
Waste of storage space: It may take longer to sell a crop, so buildings are needed to store the spare harvest. Some crops need special conditions so they do not spoil.
Waste of transportation: To sell all the crop, a farmer may need to travel larger distances, using more fuel, etc.
Waste of quality produce: If a crop starts to decrease in quality enough, it will be worth less money.
Waste of labour: The farmer may have to staff to help grow and care for crop, which is not an efficient use of time and labour if too much crop is produced.

Replying to

Over-irrigation leads to water loss, increases energy use for pumping, causes leaking of nitrogen and other micro nutrients, and wastes time.
Composting allows these agricultural wastes to break down or biodegrade completely in a shorter amount of time.
The common agricultural waste disposal methods include burning, dumping, land filling, random piling.
