It is more common in the current scenario to throw leftover food in the trash, particularly from hotels and restaurants, which causes mass food wastage, thereby increasing the size of dump yards and potentially leading to more diseases. There is waste generated in households as well, but collectively it becomes a huge amount and this waste is discarded directly in dump yards.
With leftover food, we can generate fertilizer, biogas, and bio enzymes and provide these by-products to farmers at a reduced cost. This in turn decreases farmers' manure cost, which enables them to produce organic vegetables and fruits at a lower cost, and we can supply these to consumers like hostels, restaurants, and households at an even lower cost than the market price. By utilizing this supply-chain model, farmers and consumers can obtain manure and vegetables at a discount, while also reducing the amount of waste generated at dump yards.
By implementing our business plan, we intend to have a major impact on society by:
- Reducing the amount of waste generated.
- Enabling farmers to obtain mature crops and fertilizer, thereby fostering organic farming.
- The reduction of waste indirectly causes a reduction in the amount of waste that is disposed of in landfills, resulting in fewer diseases and a reduction in the size of the landfills, keeping the country clean and healthy.
