Assam Farmer Bets on Vanilla and Organic Manure

Guwahati: Jibon Prasad Sharma is changing how Chulung grows food. The Kaliabor farmer has launched a business focused on organic manure production alongside a new vanilla crop. He aims to make his land work harder. His operation pushes a cleaner path for local agriculture.

Sharma set a target to produce 120 tonnes of organic fertilizer every year. He has already started moving that stock to market. He is betting big on the natural stuff. His project serves a dual purpose: building a steady income while cleaning up the soil in his corner of Assam.

The move goes beyond personal profit. Sharma wants to scrap chemical fertilizers across his district entirely. He is actively recruiting his neighbors to switch to organic alternatives for their own plots. He stated the effort aims to "promote sustainable farming practices" while carving out a new, reliable revenue stream for the region.
