This study explores the innovation of paper production using corn husk, banana peel, and lemongrass fiber as sustainable alternatives to traditional wood-based sources. By repurposing agricultural waste, this eco-friendly approach reduces deforestation and offers a biodegradable, recyclable paper product. The process involves extracting and blending fibers from these materials to create a durable paper, which can also be repurposed as an organic fertilizer after use. This dual functionality not only addresses environmental concerns but also provides an economic incentive for farmers and industries to adopt this sustainable practice, contributing to a circular economy and resource conservation.
