Social Benefits: | The social impact of our initiative is multi-faceted. Addressing food wastage is crucial, especially in the context of the ongoing global financial crisis, escalating food prices, and international food shortages. By preventing food wastage, we contribute to mitigating these social challenges and promoting more sustainable food consumption practices. Additionally, our solution plays a role in environmental stewardship by preventing pollution caused by stubble burning, a significant contributor to pollution in North India. This dual focus on social and environmental aspects underscores our commitment to creating a positive impact on both communities and ecosystems. |

Brief Description
Description : | The identified solution involves the valorization of agricultural waste, including materials like corn cob, wheat straw, peanut shells, and other processing waste. This waste will be repurposed into cattle feed through a fermentation process. This innovative approach aims to enhance the bioavailability of essential nutrients in the feed, providing a more nutritionally rich and sustainable option for livestock. The fermentation process will play a crucial role in transforming agricultural by-products into a valuable resource for animal nutrition. |
