Experts make the case for human urine as fertiliser

Fertiliser prices are also soaring, especially with the war in Ukraine

Scientists in France are trying to see possibility of using human urine as fertiliser.  In a report published in Global Net, an agricultural publication the researchers say the discovery is a game changer as it is likely to reduce environmental pollution and help in food security. Synthetic nitrogen fertilisers can boost agricultural production but if used in excess, they can also pollute the environment.

Their prices are also soaring, especially with the war in Ukraine, that has cut supply chain in Russia, a net exporter of fertiliser.
