The temperatures reached during the city composting process eliminates weeds and pathogens in the raw material. This also produces a pleasant ‘earthy’ smell.
It increases microbial activity, soil porosity and moisture retention. The minimum guaranteed 36% dry weight total organic matter is the ideal amendment for soil that has lost its vigor. It’s also an excellent amendment for both sand-based and clay-based soils.
On average it contains less than 40% moisture which means more nutrients per tonne, and a product that is light and easy to work with.
It’s an optimal, easy and inexpensive way to build your soil’s organic matter, protect against drought and enhance crop yields. Great for use on all cropland and production systems: grains, oil seeds, forage land, and others.
Immediate improvement in organic matter, microbial activity, soil porosity and moisture retention. A natural way to replace organic matter in your soil, especially with repeated use. Supplies beneficial soil microbes and provides food for their proliferation.
