They are environmentally friendly and reduce the risk of soil and water pollution. Organic fertilizers decompose naturally and release nutrients gradually, minimizing the impact on local ecosystems and reducing runoff.

They improve soil water retention, which is especially beneficial in areas like Velachery, where water availability can be a concern. Organic matter in fertilizers helps soil hold moisture better, reducing the need for frequent watering.

Organic fertilizers often provide a more balanced nutrient profile compared to chemical fertilizers. This ensures that plants receive a comprehensive range of nutrients necessary for their growth and development.

They can enhance the soil’s ability to store nutrients. Organic matter from these fertilizers helps build soil structure, improving its capacity to retain and supply essential nutrients to plants over time.
