Commercialising Horse Manure Compost Fertiliser for Soil-Improvement for Guinea Grass Cultivation & Preservation

The project reduces reliance on chemical fertiliser, which can cause soil degradation & water pollution. It also addresses the manure disposal issues, contributing to cleaner environment
Poor soil fertility is a major issue in agriculture, especially in areas where Guinea grass (Panicum maximum) is cultivated. Farmer need sustainable solutions to improve soil health & boost crop yields. There is a growing demand for organic & eco-friendly fertiliser to reduce the environmental impact of chemical fertiliser
The project produces an organic compost fertiliser from horse waste using Bokashi EM fermentation in a semi-aerobic environment. Horse manure collected from resorts with equestrian facilities is processed into nutrient-rich compost, providing a sustainable fertiliser that improves soil health and supports agricultural productivity.
The innovation lies in converting large volumes of horse manure into valuable organic fertiliser through an efficient Bokashi fermentation process. This approach simultaneously addresses manure disposal challenges and reduces dependence on chemical fertilisers, promoting sustainable agriculture and a cleaner environment.
