Compost is one of the most potent items used in organic agriculture. Compost is really great for plants. Compost is essentially decayed organic material that is used as a fertilizer for plants.

What is compost?

Almost anything can be composted. All kinds of vegetables, kitchen peels and such can be composted. The decaying organic matter is potent and filled with nutrients that are extremely beneficial for plant growth.

Effect on the environment

Compost aids in carbon sequestration. Compost acts as a carbon sink. Trapping and containing the element in the dirt. And if the carbon is in the ground it will not damage the atmosphere.

How to start composting?

• Compost is typically made in a pit
• It is important to lay twigs in the first layer.
• Add compost material in layers. After the addition of kitchen-waste make sure to add the dry materials.
• Add green manure. Typically, green manure contains nitrogen.
• Keep the compost moist and well aerated.
• Make sure to cover the composting pit or bin.
• Turn your compost every week. This will allow oxygen in and help in the decomposition process.
