New Delhi: decomposer pusa, bio-enzymes developed by the Indian Agricultural Research Institute (iari) to describe plant residues, can obtain several traction this winter as more than 25,000 farmers in Punjab and Haryana, have more than 5,00,000 hectares, have Register with the company to use it to manage their rice stumps during the post-harvest period in October-November.
The peak burns episodes every year contributing to the decline in air quality in Delhi-NCR and a side by side.
Such episodes are largely reported from Punjab and Haryana where farmers use methods to quickly prepare their farms to sow wheat.
Company, Nurture.Farm – Integrated LED Solutions Provider for global sustainable agriculture – has partnered with Iír and Iim Rohtak to develop and improve the solution below the phase I of the initiative as a breeder project that is free of costs.
“We have planned to increase operations to end burning arrears in Punjab and Haryana in the next three years,” said Dhruv Sawhney, COO and Head of Business, Nurture.
Asked how companies can provide free solutions for all farmers covering 5.7 million hectares of land under rice in both countries, Sawhney told Ti on Friday that digitally onboarding farmers for this operation would help the company offer a solution led by a different technology for them sustainable agriculture.
“This effort will produce carbon loans (from reducing emissions if farmers stop burning biomass and adopt other sustainable practices in agriculture) and enable market connection.
The entire value chain on the road will be a win-win situation for farmers and service providers after this model is successful, “Sawhney said.
DECOMPOSER PUSA rot stump in 20-25 days after spraying and turning it into manure, improving soil quality.
Since the use of Happy Seeder (engine operated with tractors for Sawble In Situ management) continues to be an expensive method for the majority of farmers, cost-effective decomposers can be a popular alternative.
One package of four pusa decomposition capsules, RS 20 fees, can be used to make 25 liters of solution that can be used in one hectare (2.5 hectares) of soil.
IAri has, so far, licensing the technology to 12 companies for mass disputation and pusa decomposition marketing.
In addition, the Institute has produced around 20,000 pusa pemrangan packages in their own facilities for use by farmers.
Last year, decomposer pusa was provided for use at 5,730 hectares of areas in different states – Uttar Pradesh, Punjab, Delhi, West Bengal and Telangana.
