FARMER FIRST BIO-FISH
This fish-based organic manure, fortified with selected soil conditioners and microbial consortia, is used for pit and soil application in crops and plantation systems to improve nutrient availability, enhance soil organic matter, and support efficient root-zone nutrient uptake. It enables farmers to reduce chemical fertilizer dependency while maintaining crop productivity and thereby promoting sustainable and environmentally responsible agriculture.

Product Description
"Farmer First introduces BIO-FISH, a sustainable and innovative agri-input solution designed to tackle two critical challenges simultaneously: marine waste pollution and declining soil fertility. BIO-FISH converts fish waste—one of the largest sources of organic marine pollution—into a nutrient-rich organic compost using a scientifically developed carbon composting method. This eco-friendly approach enhances soil health, reduces dependence on chemical fertilizers, and supports regenerative and climate-resilient farming practices.
Fish processing industries generate enormous quantities of organic waste, much of which is improperly disposed of into water bodies or landfills. This leads to environmental degradation, foul odors, soil toxicity, and water pollution. At the same time, farmers are experiencing declining soil productivity due to excessive use of synthetic fertilizers and the absence of organic matter and beneficial microbes in agricultural soils.
BIO-FISH is a premium organic soil enhancer formulated using fish waste, rice husk charcoal, coir-based compost, and a proprietary blend of microbes and minerals. It creates a strong link between marine ecosystem nutrients and agricultural soil requirements, offering a true circular economy solution—transforming waste into wealth.
