A woman, Sheela Kushwaha said, “We are a group of 10-15 women and we have been doing this work since 2015. We collect household garbage such as vegetable peels, used tea leaves etc. and mix it with cow dung all together for decomposition. After that we used it as manure in our fields and sold it to farmers. There is no need to apply chemical medicines in the field. It is sufficient and gives better yield. We also earn a good profit from it.”
