Only carbonic manure from 2020

by S.M. Wijayaratne, Kurunegala Corr.

The Government will introduce a novel project to reduce the use of harmful fertilisers and chemicals on food crops and by the year 2020, steps would be taken to do away with the use of chemicals and artificial fertiliser on food crops.

A number of villages that manufacture carbonic manure and natural pest control liquids would be set up countrywide. Seventy-five such villages would be formed next year at a cost of Rs. 500 million.
