NitroGrow AgroTech Nepal, Revolutionizing Agriculture with Innovation!

“Nitro Grow Agrotech Nepal” produces “Nitro Booster”, an eco-friendly fertilizer made from waste human hair that provides essential nutrients like Nitrogen, Potassium, and Phosphorus. This initiative addresses fertilizer shortages and high costs while promoting environmental sustainability. It aims to offer affordable alternatives to chemical fertilizers, empower local communities (especially female farmers), and transform barber shops into “green salons.” Despite challenges in hair collection and farmer acceptance, the project expects to increase crop yields, reduce reliance on chemical fertilizers, and decrease methane emissions from landfills.

It reduces the amount of methane emitted from decomposing hair in landfills, reducing environmental pollution.

Improvement in soil fertility translates to increased harvests among the farmers involved in the project area.

With these cheap alternatives at their disposal, the farmers can now comfortably spend less on their fertilizers making them have more economic balance.

Education & skills are imparted to the women farmers; this widens their understanding & knowledge hence better living opportunities with equal rights in place including for men or any other gender in the society.

The transformation of barbershops taking part in this venture as “green salons” will enhance the message of sustainability while at the same supporting the anti-waste economy.
