About Project

Problem: What problem is this project trying to address?

We have three methods to counter the problems of waste management vermicomposting. 1 - we need to develop training in this area.2 - we need a cultural development .3 - we need economic development plan.

Solution: What is the proposed solution? Please be specific!

Our solution: education and promotion through the mass media, advertising for production and consumption of vermicompost ---- (market making) ----- vermicomposting at construction sites, institutions, government offices, parks and ... ..
Impact: How does it Work

Example: Walk us through a specific example(s) of how this solution makes a difference; include its primary activities.

Waste is an integral part of the social life, each person produces on average 800 grams of waste per day.Today, garbage and waste are one of the main problems for governments, and they spend a lot to keep pollution from waste away from residential and urban centers.Several methods for resolving the problem of waste are on the agenda of governments Including landfill and incineration of waste, and producing compost waste, but the best way for waste management is on-site waste separation and reusing them.If on-site waste separation is given sufficient attention, it can be expected to decrease the current costs of the Municipality to a great extent by recycling 50-60% of wet waste and reusing them in production of home composting .
Sustainability

Marketplace: Who else is addressing the problem outlined here? How does the proposed project differ from these approaches?

Difference between our solution and other solutions competitors (producers of waste compost):Green Organic=Convert wet waste into one of the best fertilizers, Appropriate advertising, finding the right market. Regular compost fertilizer importing companies=High volume fertilizer production with low price, Low quality fertilizer.Chemical fertilizer importing companies=High production, Chemical hazards to agricultural soil

Your Solution
Founding Story: Share a story about the “Aha!” moment that led you to get started and/or to see the potential for this to succeed.

Research to set up vermicompost production site in Kabul - preview raw material resources of the Kabul (the percentage of perishable waste generated daily and livestock waste sources and their production rate) prices of livestock waste - transportation costs of raw materials – find construction site - site preparation - shopping and garbage into worm-eating - preparing the bed for the worms - worms feed - apply for a license from AISA - Exhibition - attempt to import 200 kilograms of worms multiply in the site 500 square meters - search to find donors and investors - Introduction of product (vermicompost fertilizer) to farmers and gardeners - to build greenhouses and agricultural land use fertilizer for organic crops -

Measurable Impact
Audience: Who have you identified as your customers/recipients and why? How will you get your solution to them or engage them in your initiative?

Impact: What is the impact of the work to date and expected impact in the future?

We are working on several significant impacts. 1 - On-site management and recycling of waste generated (reduce cost of garbage collection) 2 - Production of organic fertilizer for sustainable agriculture 3 - Environmental Protection and Water and Soil Resources

Growth, Finance & Leadership
Scaling the Solution: How do you intend to scale your activities over the next two years (e.g., reach new markets, diversify solutions, etc.)? What will make this possible?

Vermicomposting is a method during which organic waste is converted into one of the best agricultural fertilizers using garbage-eating worms.Apart from fertilizer production in this way, vermicomposting is an effective way to recycle organic waste (wet waste) which not only reduces costs related to transport and burial of waste, but also protects the environment against burial of waste.Teaching vermicomposting as a way of recycling waste is a way for running training workshops and short term courses in schools and institutions of higher education, which also creates jobs for people. In addition to the benefits of using vermicomposting to recycle putrescible waste, vermicompost fertilizer is one of the best agricultural fertilizers.

Financial Sustainability: What is your business model to ensure financial sustainability?

Fertilizer production vermicompost waste perishables have multiple sources of income 1 - produce fertilizer for farming 2 - Management of waste in production of 3 - reproduction and breeding worms for the construction of new sites 4 - sell earthworms to feed livestock and poultry 5 - Extraction of Proteins useful for body creams and cosmetics pharmaceutical industry.

Experience: Please provide examples of any previous entrepreneurial initiatives you have pioneered.

Our company Successful experience: take the program of (Assistance in Building Afghanistan by Developing Enterprises (ABADE). that worth $ 25,000 2 – and also Grand of IDEA- New Institute 10000$. construction first vermicompost Fertilizer production site in Kabul, Afghanistan.
