The Escalating Threat of Soil Salinity
A critical challenge degrading agricultural lands and impacting livelihoods across coastal Bangladesh.
40% Arable Land Vulnerable
A significant portion of Bangladesh's fertile land is under threat from rising salinity.
1.06M Hectares Contaminated
Over a million hectares in coastal areas already suffer from salt contamination, reducing yield.
60%+ Farmer Migration
Climate change and land degradation are forcing a majority of climate migrants, who are farmers, to relocate.
100k+ Women Affected Annually
Women in these regions are disproportionately affected, facing increased financial and social insecurity.
Stage 01
Green Soil Remediation
We employ native hyperaccumulator plants, "Hatishur" and "Kalai Grass," to naturally draw out and remove excess salt from affected soil. This eco-friendly phytoremediation process typically spans four weeks, after which the treated topsoil is enhanced with organic manure and dried green moss to create a fertile foundation for crops.
Stage 02
Predictive Spatial Intelligence
Our advanced spatial intelligence platform utilizes satellite imagery and environmental data to forecast geographical salt intrusion patterns on a day-by-day timescale. This predictive capability allows for proactive land management strategies, optimizing remediation efforts and resource allocation to mitigate salinity risks effectively.
Stage 03
Sustainable Vertical Farming
The remediated soil, guided by insights from our predictive platform, is then used in innovative vertical farming systems. These structures, built from sustainable and locally-sourced bamboo, maximize land efficiency, significantly reduce water consumption, and enable diverse crop cultivation in areas with limited space, promoting a resilient agricultural future.
