Abstract

Jeevamrut, a traditional Indian biofertilizer, is increasingly recognized for its potential in sustainable agriculture and soil health enhancement. Comprising cow dung, cow urine, jaggery, and gram flour, it is easy to prepare, cost-effective, and accessible to small and marginal farmers. Rich in beneficial microbes and essential nutrients such as nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium, Jeevamrut enhances soil fertility, microbial activity, and crop productivity. Its natural pesticidal properties also reduce the need for chemical inputs, lowering production costs and environmental harm. By promoting biodiversity and improving plant health, Jeevamrut offers a viable, eco-friendly alternative for sustainable and resilient farming systems.
