Business Model for Bio-PROM: Case Example from Suvarnakranthi FPCL, Sindhudurg, Maharashtra
Indo-German development cooperation project ‘Soil Protection and Rehabilitation of Degraded Soil for Food Security in India (ProSoil) is implemented by Deutsche Gesellschaft für Internationale Zusammenarbeit (GIZ) GmbH on behalf of the German Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development (BMZ) in partnership with the National Bank for Agriculture and Rural Development (NABARD). The project is part of a larger global programme under BMZ’s Special Initiative “Transformation of Agricultural and Food Systems”. Under this project, GIZ India in collaboration with BAIF Development Research Foundation, is supporting an initiative in the Sindhudurg district of Maharashtra to prepare an organic manure called Bio-PROM using residue from biogas plants.
Bio-PROM can generally be produced using different sources like organic manure, plant-based biomass, de-oiled cakes, potassium hummate, to name a few.
