Challenges in Island Farming and Siesto Green products Solution -

Agriculture on islands can be economically challenging due to high import costs of conventional fertilizers and fluctuating market prices for crops

  • Siesto Green Bio fertilizers offer substantial cost savings (40%-50% compared to chemical fertilizers) and reduced handling costs. This affordability makes farming more economically viable by lowering input costs and improving overall crop yield and quality.
  • Reduced logistical challenges due to encapsulated technology as it is light in weight
    • 1 capsule = 1 Gram weight
    • 1 Capsule = 1 acre of land
    • 1 capsule = 20-25 kg of chemical urea powder.

Increase in Storage cost of Conventional fertilizers

  • The Encapsulated Bio fertilizer does not require more storage space due to its compact size.

Nutrient Deficiency in Island Soil

    • Encapsulated Bio fertilizers are designed to release nutrients over time, ensuring a steady supply of essential nutrients to crops. This helps in overcoming nutrient deficiencies common in island soils without relying heavily on synthetic fertilizers.
