Lake Weed Processing

Turning Aquatic Waste into Agricultural Wealth

At CEF Group, we bridge the gap between environmental restoration and sustainable agriculture.
Through our Lake Weed Processing Project , we remove invasive aquatic weeds from polluted lakes and scientifically convert them into premium-grade organic manure reviving water bodies while empowering farmers with sustainable inputs.

Why Lake Weed Processing Matters

Environmental Problems We Address

Rapid spread of invasive weeds choking India’s lakes
Declining aquatic biodiversity
Sunlight blockage leading to oxygen depletion
Poor water quality affecting local communities and tourism

Our Solution

Large-scale lake weed extraction
Scientific processing into organic agri-inputs
Complete restoration of lake ecosystems
Circular economy model benefiting both nature and farmers

🏭 Manufacturing Facilities

Strategically located to enable local sourcing, reduce logistics costs, and meet regional agricultural demands.

Dal Lake is India’s first large-scale aquatic weed–to–organic manure circular economy project.

How the Model Works

01.

Lake Weed Removal

Mechanical extraction of floating & submerged weed biomass.

02.

Transport & Pre-processing

Drying, size reduction, and homogenization of raw weed.

03.

Scientific Conversion to Organic Manure

Microbial enrichment + controlled formulations create nutrient-rich, high-carbon manure.

04.

Packaging & Distribution

Sold to farmers through the Apna Khaad brand

05.

Ecosystem Restoration

Cleaner lakes, improved biodiversity, and long-term environmental revival.

🏹Benefits & Impact

B. Economic & Social Benefits for Farmers

High-Quality Organic Manure

Our lake-weed-based organic manure is:
- Rich in organic carbon, improving soil fertility
- Packed with natural micronutrients
- Chemical-free and residue-free
- Improves soil structure, water retention & microbial life

Better Yield, Less Cost

Farmers experience:
- Gradual increase in crop yield
- Lower input cost compared to expensive chemical fertilizers
- Healthier soil over long-term cycles
- Reduced dependency on subsidies & external chemical inputs

The Opportunity: Scaling Across India

India has 62+ major lakes heavily infested with aquatic weeds
Represents a massive untapped biomass source
Each lake can sustainably produce thousands of tons of organic manure
The Dal Lake model is proven, replicable, and ready for nationwide implementation
Ideal for:
- CSR impact programs
- State-led restoration missions
- Green investment portfolios
- Community livelihood enhancement

Lake restoration + sustainable agriculture = High-impact national transformation.
