Question

Write a note on using ‘Rot’ as a method of household waste management.

Answer 1

The concept of ‘Rot’ involves composting organic wet waste generated at home, such as fruit peels, vegetable scraps, and leftover food. Instead of throwing this waste into garbage dumps, it is placed in a backyard compost bin or a small container where it undergoes natural decomposition by microorganisms. Over a few weeks, this organic matter breaks down completely and turns into nutrient-rich organic manure. This process helps households significantly reduce their daily garbage output while producing free, natural fertilizer for home gardening.
