rice husk ash

John Sherry, assistant director of the Agriculture Farm Innovation Bureau in Kerala shares a step by step of how he grew tomato, cowpea, bhindi, bitter gourd, snake gourd, chillies, brinjal and more in his home in an environmentally sustainable way.

Bhibhu Sahu from Odisha is a rice mill owner, who began selling rice husk produced as a by-product of his mills to steel companies across the globe. In 2019, he sold about 100 tonnes of husk pellets to these companies

“Rice husk was used as a fuel in mills, which produced ash. Disposing ash is a big issue in the state, but then we found a successful solution.”
