Valuable waste: NSO report shows cattle dung is more ‘precious’ than fodder -Prabhudatta Mishra

-The Hindu Business Line

The gross value of output of dung increased 6.8% to 34,825.75 cr in 2019-20 from 32,598.91 cr in 2011-12

The gross value of output (GVO) of cattle dung estimated at 34,825.75 crore is more than the total value of the fodder that the cattle population consumes. Not only fodder but there are also 128 other items including maize, mustard, onion, potato, eggs, soyabean, tea, coffee and cashew nut whose value is lower than dung.

According to the report, ‘Value of Output From Agriculture, Forestry and Fishing’, released by the National Statistical Office (NSO) recently, the GVO of dung increased 6.8 per cent to 34,825.75 crore in 2019-20 from 32,598.91 crore in 2011-12.

Due to a drop in value for two years between 2019-20 and 2011-12, the pace of growth is lower compared to the previous phase of seven years. The GVO of dung had increased 17 per cent to 18,797.75 crore in 2010-11 from 16,050.86 crore in 2004-05.
