The Indian Biogas Association (IBA) has welcomed the Indian government’s initiative to promote organic fertilizers, projecting a potential revenue increase of $2.6 billion for the biogas industry.
The IBA, a leading industry body advocating for biogas development in India, stated that the government’s amendment includes ‘Organic Carbon Enhancers’ derived from Compressed Biogas (CBG) plants. These enhancers will improve soil fertility and boost agricultural productivity, encouraging a shift toward eco-friendly farming practices.
The government’s decision is expected to increase demand for organic fertilizers, leading to a rise in the number of CBG plants and overall economic growth in the sector. In a statement, the IBA emphasized that this move aligns with India’s sustainability goals while strengthening the domestic biogas industry.
The government’s decision to integrate organic fertilizers from CBG plants will play a crucial role in enhancing soil health while driving economic benefits. This initiative will further boost the adoption of sustainable agricultural practices.”
