Abstract

Agriculture (Soil Health improvements in 100 days). Agriculture today is affected with lot of environmental concerns like soil pollution, contamination, soil erosion, pesticide residues, lack of organic carbon or plainly due to too intensive agriculture. Farmers are continuously trying to meet the ever-increasing demand and need more and more input cost by way of purchasing fertilizers and pesticides for enhanced produce to meet the increasing demands. This makes farming not only financially demanding but is resulting in ecologically draining in many ways. Since past 50 years or so the focus was more on crop management rather than maintaining soil health. And today, soil condition is the biggest concerns of agriculture and it needs a National Policy to break this vicious cycle and have a robust Soil Health Policy as a guiding principle for farming in India, be it profession or passion. We are importing latest/modern technologies in agriculture but there is no technology available throughout world which can improve soil health in minimum time till date.
We have successfully developed groundbreaking technology which improves soil organic carbon in 100 days. Our technology is based on soil microbial diversity and ancient agricultural / soil conditioning techniques. It improves physical, biological and chemical properties of soil in very short time. It is non-toxic, organic and can be prepared in any location with local resources. This technology has potential to bring paradigm changes in agricultural economics. Present scenario of soil health and agriculture throughout our nation can be improved by using our technology.
The aim of developing this technology has been to improve soil health and thereby increasing agriculture productivity. By improving soil health, pollution of water bodies will be reduced, nutritional and medicinal value of farm produce will increase, expenses for fertilizers and pesticides will be reduced and in general farming economy will improve.
