Bajaj Bhu Mahashakti

Soil fertility is seriously impaired with excessive use of chemical fertilizers. Studies conducted to ascertain the reasons for fall in grain production have indicated that soil where chemical fertilizers are used in excess tends to lose organic carbon over time which in turn adversely affects its fertility.

Regular use of bio-manure can help address this challenge. Bajaj Bhu Mahashakti is a rich source of carbon for the soil and other important elements like Nitrogen, Phosphorus, Potassium (NPK). The product balances organic carbon in the soil and preserves its fertility better than other competing offerings.

Bhu Mahashakti (Bio-compost)

Bajaj Bhu Mahashakti Bio-manure/Bio-compost is manufactured by composting press mud received from cane juice filtration and spent wash received from distilleries.

Composting Process

• Composting is the biological decomposition of ligno-celluloid organic material into a simple compound, a humus-like end-product called "compost". It is a rich source of organic manure. It helps improve the quality of soil.
• It's an aerobic process which uses various micro-organisms such as bacteria, actinomycetes and fungi to break down the higher organic compounds like cellulose and lignin into simpler substances.
• During composting, the micro-organisms consume oxygen while feeding on organic matter, and multiply. Active composting generates a considerable amount of heat. It also discharges large quantities of carbon dioxide and water vapor into the atmosphere.
• The loss of carbon-dioxide and water vapor reduces the weight of the initial dry organic matter. Thus composting reduces both the volume and the mass of the organic matter.

Bio-manure Formation Process

• Press mud is stored in triangular shaped rows known as windrows.
• Spent wash is sprayed on each windrow at specific intervals. The windrows are then turned.
• This helps in homogenizing the entire mass, maintaining uniform temperature and moisture with effective aeration and oxygen supply.
• During the composting process, the temperature goes up to 650-700 C.
• Due to the churning of the mixture of press mud and spent wash by aero tillers, oxygen is supplied to bacteria, thereby accelerating the composting process. It also dissipates the excess heat generated.
• Bacteria separate carbon and other complex compounds from press mud and spent wash.
• Enhancing the effectiveness of this process requires 50-60% moisture.

Composting Cycle

• On average it takes 60 days to complete the composting cycle. During the first five days windrow dressing, moisture reduction and inoculation are completed. From the 6th to the 50th day, the temperature and moisture levels are maintained by spraying spent wash. From the 51st to the 60th day, moisture reduces curing and aging, and the stabilization process gets underway. This again reduces the moisture level.

Unique Benefits of Bajaj Bhu Mahashakti

• Improves the physical, chemical, and biological properties of the soil.
• Improves the soil structure, air circulation and water retention capacity of the soil.
• Retains nutrients and prevents them from leaching away the plant roots.
• Contains both the micro-nutrients (calcium, sulphur, magnesium, iron, etc.) and macro-nutrients (nitrogen, phosphorus, and potash) essential for plant growth.
• Microbes accelerate the breakdown of crop residues in the soil which in turn improves the texture of the soil and releases locked-up elements.
• Increases the yield and quality of field, vegetable, tree and fruit crops.
• Can easily be applied as both base-dressing and top-dressing.
• Improves alkaline and saline/sodic soil.
• Helps the growth of the roots by improving the soil structure.
• Boosts crop yield by improving soil fertility and soil structure.
• Useful for all types of field crops, vegetable crops, orchards, kitchen gardens and flowers.
