Bio-decomposer technique of converting crop stubble into compost.
It is deemed a cost-effective way to deal with air pollution caused due to crop stubble burning.
The technology, called ‘Pusa Decomposer’, involves making a liquid formulation using decomposer capsules and readily available inputs.
The fermentation takes place over 8-10 days and then sprayed on fields with crop stubble to ensure speedy bio-decomposition of the stubble.
It takes around 20 days for the degradation process to be completed.
The decomposer improves the fertility and productivity of the soil as the stubbleworks as manure and compost for the crops and lesser fertiliser consumption is required in the future.
