Benefits of Composting
Reduces Greenhouse Gases
When food waste goes to landfills, it cannot decay efficiently and produces methane, a greenhouse gas. Composting these organic materials that have been diverted from landfills reduces the emission of methane into the environment. The large amount of methane gas in our atmosphere is a known contributor to global warming.
Improves Soil Quality
Composting is known to regenerate poor soil by encouraging the production of beneficial micro-organisms (mainly bacteria and fungi), which then break down organic matter to create humus. Humus helps retain moisture and naturally increases the nutrient content in soil. As a result, food grown in composted soil has shown to contain more nutrients and be more beneficial to eat.
Cleans up contaminated soil
According to the EPA, the composting process has been shown to absorb odors and treat volatile organic compounds (VOCs) like heating fuels and explosives. In some cases, wood preservatives, pesticides, and both chlorinated and nonchlorinated hydrocarbons in contaminated soils were eradicated by the compost process.
Mushroom Compost
Mushroom Compost is a carefully composted blend of horse manure and chicken manure to provide a rich source of plant nutrients; wheat straw to provide body and gypsum to improve texture. The composting process is carried out by experts with years of experience in providing a balanced compost for commercial mushroom cultivation.
Prior to packaging this compost is steam sterilised to provide a material which is free of all weed seed, pests and diseases. It is ideal for the keen gardener as a nutrient rich soil conditioner, a surface mulch and aid to planting.
Helps control erosion
Compost has been shown to prevent erosion on embankments that are parallel to creeks, lakes and rivers, as well as lessen turf loss on roadsides, hillsides, playing fields and golf courses. Imagine football season without good turf!
