Eco-garden pot (EGP) a sustainable approach to home garden

The reuse and recycling rates for agricultural plastic waste are alarmingly low, with Malaysia recycling only 12% of its 1,070,064 tonnes of plastic waste (WWF-Malaysia, 2020). To address this issue, we developed the Eco-Garden Pot (EGP), a biodegradable plant pot that nurtures plants and reduces waste. Made from natural ingredients like eggshell powder, banana peels, and dried leaves, EGP decomposes into the soil, enriching it with essential nutrients. This innovation supports sustainable gardening, reduces the ecological footprint of agriculture, and promotes the principles of a circular economy. EGP represents a significant advancement in eco-friendly agriculture, fostering a greener planet.
