For Compost:

We compared the number of animals on the Jamshedpur zoo with that of the Mysore zoo. The Mysore zoo sold a quantity of 2.33 lakh KG of Compost which brought in receipts worth Rs. 9.35 lakh. The size of the Jamshedpur zoo in terms of mammal count being only 10% of the numbers in the Mysore zoo and with Animal dung being the major constituent, we can predict a revenue addition of around Rs. 1 lakh over a period of 12 months

Channappa, a farmer in Malavalli, converted his two acre agriculture land into fish pond and produced fish seed worth over `8 lakh in less than four months. The net profit earned by the farmer by selling fish seed was around `5 to 6 lakh which is more compared to traditional crops of paddy and the sugarcane he said
