If human urine is properly collected and used for agriculture, it contributes to improved environmental sanitation in cities and reduces the costs of crop production. The innovation lies in the integration of agriculture, environment and sanitation sectors.

Since March 2009, there has been a “human fertiliser” market in Ouagadougou, the capital of Burkina Faso. Human urine and dried faeces are collected and taken to eco-stations, where they are sold to farmers after adequate storage. In this way they increase sanitation coverage, create jobs in the private sector and provide urban farmers with complete and efficient indigenous fertilisers.

The upcoming publication titled Practical guideline on the use of urine in crop production gives practical guidance on the use of urine in crop production as a vital component of sustainable crop production and sanitation systems. It also includes guidance on how to initiate activities that will facilitate the introduction of new fertilisers to the
agricultural community.
