WASTE DECOMPOSER MIRACLES AND HOW TO MAKE DIY MICRONUTRIENT FERTILIZER

In today’s post, we will look into an almost free 100% organic fertilizer cum pesticide formula developed by the National Centre for Organic Farming, Ministry of Agriculture, Government of India. This is the most economical all-in-one, bio-fertilizer, bio-pesticide, quick bio-waste composter, and has many other uses in gardening and farming. We will also show you how to make the most powerful DIY micronutrient-loaded organic fertilizer using this product.

Why Use Waste Decomposer?

Currently, about 2 billion metric tons of waste is produced annually worldwide and only about 5 percent of this is recycled for composting. This means the waste is not managed properly and instead either dumped or openly burnt which can be really bio hazardous. To overcome this problem, the NCOF, Ministry of Agriculture, India, developed a great product which is a consortium of micro-organisms, mainly azotobacter isolated from desi cow dung. This took 11 years to standardize the mass multiplication technique at the farm level.

What is this Product Called?

This is called WASTE DECOMPOSER. This is perhaps the world’s cheapest bio fertilizer and bio pesticide made to date. This product comes in a bottle of 30 grams costing just 20 INR per bottle, that’s less than 20 cents for international viewers. You need to buy it only once because you can easily reproduce or do mass multiplication of this product and use it repeatedly forever. A single bottle of waste decomposer decomposes bio-waste of more than 10000 metric tons in just 30 days and this bottle has a shelf life of 3 years. This is unbelievable.

Where to Purchase This Waste Decomposer Bottle?

You can order this online from the NCOF website or even Amazon. Here are the links:

How to Use Waste Decomposer?

Mass Multiplication

The first thing you should do is perform mass multiplication of waste decomposer. It’s really a simple process. Here are the steps:

1. Take a large plastic barrel, preferably a 200-liter container. You can take even 100 liters or whatever you have.
2. Fill this drum with water.
3. Add 2 kilograms of jaggery for 200 liters of water or 1 kilogram for 100 liters. This is the food for these microorganisms.
4. Take 1 bottle of waste decomposer and pour all its contents. Make sure you avoid direct contact of its contents with bare hands. Mix it thoroughly using any stick or pipe.
5. Cover the container with a cloth. Open it daily and stir the solution once every 24 hours.
6. After 5 days or a maximum of 7 days depending on the climate, this solution turns creamy which means now you have 200 liters of water decomposer ready to use.

To restart mass multiplication, you don’t need to buy the waste decomposer again. After use, just leave around 20 liters of this solution in the barrel, add water and jaggery again, and repeat the procedure to maintain this forever.

The Various Uses of Waste Decomposer

1. Seed Treatment

Simply spray or sprinkle waste decomposer solution uniformly over the seeds. You can even soak the seeds if you are doing this on a large scale. This works on all types of seeds. Keep the treated seeds in shade for about 30 minutes and then plant the seeds. Seed treatment with waste decomposer shows 98% early and uniform germination and provides protection against various seed-borne diseases and also plays a role in strengthening the plant’s defense mechanisms.

2. Fertilizer and Soil Treatment

Watering with waste decomposer solution significantly changes the biological as well as the physical properties of all types of soil within 21 days of application and it also helps to generate earthworm population in the soil which is very beneficial. You can dilute the waste decomposer in a 1:2 ratio with water, that is one part waste decomposer to 2 parts water and water your plants once every 15 days or even once a month. This is also proven to control many soil-borne diseases in crops.

3. Foliar Spray

It acts as a potent bio-pesticide when sprayed on plants. You need to dilute it to a 1:3 ratio to use it as a foliar spray. This helps control a variety of fungal, bacterial, and viral diseases in crops when sprayed once every 10 days for 4 times in the growth cycle of a crop.

4. Composting

This is a compost accelerator and your compost will be ready within 30 to 40 days depending on the type of waste used for composting. For the conventional pile method of composting, you need to sprinkle waste decomposer for every layer of compost and maintain the basics of aerobic composting like maintaining moisture, aeration by turning the compost pile, and stuff like that. You can check my 4-episode series on composting from a link in the description below. If you do composting at home on a small scale, you can sprinkle waste decomposer solution once or twice and get that compost ready within 30 to 40 days.

DIY Micronutrient Rich Organic Fertilizer Using Waste Decomposer

Principle

The basic principle of making this micronutrient fertilizer is adding foods that are rich in proteins, vitamins, and major and minor elements including nitrogen, phosphorous, potassium, iron, copper, zinc, calcium, magnesium, boron, and so on. Adding these into the waste decomposer results in the breakdown of these elements into soluble forms by the microorganisms, enzymes, and organic acids present in the waste decomposer.

Things You Need

We will prepare this in around 25 liters of waste decomposer solution. Do not worry too much about the quantity and overdosage. This is not a problem with organic fertilizers.

1. At least 3 varieties of oil seeds like 100 grams each of sunflower seeds, mustard seeds, flax seeds, or any other like soya, castor oil seeds, nigella seeds, or any 3 varieties.
2. 3 varieties of pulses or lentils of your choice like red lentil (Masoor dal), yellow or green split gram (Moong dal), Bengal gram (Chana dal). You can also take red gram (Arhar dal), black gram (urad dal), and so on.
3. Some 4 to 5 old iron nails or any small pieces of junk iron stuff.
4. Some copper source – like some old copper wires extracted from wires lying in your junkyard or any old copper vessel if you have one.
5. Some zinc source – like one or two dry cells which are made up of zinc containers.

Preparation Steps

1. Powder these seeds and pulses, this helps in faster decomposition. Add these into 25 liters of waste decomposer.
2. Add iron nails, then copper wires, then the zinc source.
3. Mix it well and leave it for 10 days. Do not forget to stir this once daily.
4. After 10 days, your potent nutrient-rich organic fertilizer is ready.

Usage

You can use it in 2 ways:

• As a liquid fertilizer to water your plants. Dilute it to 1:5, that is one part of this liquid to 5 parts of water.
• As a foliar spray to instantly feed your plants through leaf stomata. Dilute it to 1:10 and spray thoroughly on your plants, including the undersides of your leaves, because the stomata or the leaf openings are more concentrated at the bottom side of leaves.
