Awareness of Organic Fertilisers
Biomass Unavailability
• Biomass availability is seriously impacted due to competing uses for cooking, fodder etc. Declining number of
cattle and other livestock components is also contributing to
the biomass crisis.
Lack of a strategy to harness available
biomass
• Support for organic fertilization is now
scattered under various schemes and will
require a clearer focus, along with much better
assessment of soil health and nutrient
needs at the farm level.
Lack of proper grassroots level
institutional mechanism
• Grass roots level institutions that follow a participatory approach
is critical for implementation of a
holistic biomass strategy.

Proposed Solution:
Without your support,
our victories would be impossible!
Greenpeace strictly doesn’t accept funds from corporate or government bodies. Our work solely relies on donations from
individuals like you!
