West Asia conflict revives focus on home-grown fuel: ICT research points to energy from farm waste

Indian researchers are developing technology to convert farm waste into valuable fuel. This process addresses energy security and reduces air pollution from stubble burning. Biochar produced improves soil fertility, boosting crop yields and farmer incomes. Bio-oil can be blended with conventional crude oil for refining purposes. This innovation offers a path towards greater self-reliance in energy and agriculture.
