| Description |
In an effort beneficial to the organic farmers in the City, the Ernakulam Krishi Vigyan Kendra (KVK), functioning under the Central Marine Fisheries Research Institute has developed a soil-less medium that can be used in place of soil. The soil-less medium or the mix will be a great advantage to those experiencing scarcity of quality soil, particularly in city areas. The KVK has developed the mix by using composted pressmud, a by-product from sugar mills along with coirpith , powdered cowdung, Neem cake and biocontrol agents.
