COMPOSTING and CROP RESIDUE RECYCLING: REDUCE FERTILIZER INPUTS
Whether commercial composting operations, or on-farm composting, the ingredients which make up the compost are important. The user of the end product, needs to know roughly, what nutritional value is being added to the soil when incorporating the compost. The compost calculator(link available shortly) is a rough guide to assist compost makers/users to determine the nutritional value. There are many excellent value sites on how to make compost, see our suggested links , however by inoculating RECYCLER COMPOSTING AND TRASH during the compost making process, the natural microbial populations are boosted. RECYCLER:COMPOSTING AND TRASH is a fungal microbial formulation. Fungi are the primary degraders of cellulose, chitin, lignin, and their related polymers. The degradation of these compounds, allows the mineralization of decaying vegetation, thereby freeing nutrients for other members of the microbial population as well as the plants. Research has shown that microbes within the RECYCLER:COMPOSTING AND TRASH formulation can reduce turn-around time of composts, particularly the high fibre components, for example, cane bagasse, wood chips , and such like. The result - a uniformly degraded compost.
To understand how the Inoculant RECYCLER COMPOSTING AND TRASH improves the composting process, liken the Microbes within the formulation to human athletes. There are some athletes who are better than others, who have honed their athletic prowess, enhanced their ability to get to the end finishing line quicker and more efficiently. Like these human athletes, the Inoculants contain the super Athletes of the Microbial World, carefully selected for their performance capabilities. Microbial inoculation into the composting process is a cost effective means of value adding to the end product, adding a new ingredient to the mix. Utilize the Microbe benefits, identified by Science, to processors advantage; Inoculums and the selected strains contained within can:
Provide enhanced performance for the efficiency of compost making
Bioaugmentation (supplemented microbes) provides a type of insurance that capable organisms would be present if they weren't already there, or boost numbers that are there but in small numbers.
External Inoculation allows the introduction of more efficient degraders to supplement already present indigenous microbes or supplant less capable microbes to give a timelier composting result.
Providing the ability to increase the nutritional content of the final compost product by introduction of nitrogen fixers.
External Inoculation allows the introduction of Microbes which have the ability to enhance Plant Growth through plant hormone production which is limited to certain species that would not be present in normal composting circumstances.
Have the ability to introduce specific Microbial activity with the ability to control Odour issues where sensitive situations occur.
The end goal of all final composted products to be effective, must be rich in nutrients, aerobic, well structured and teaming with microbial life, which in turn will have a positive effect on soil health and crop productivity, thus enabling a positive and proactive approach to increasing soil humus, plant health, plant nutrient and carbon sequestration.
The Compost Industry regulators are tasked to indicate the parameters of compost quality, and define the values of good, medium and poor compost. The ingredient mix that starts the composting process is important and will define the quality, and value of the final product. A good commercial composter will take into account, the nutritional input value, and have a rough idea of the expected outcome. The Carbon to Nitrogen range will be an important factor in defining the end product, and Microbial Inoculants are just one of the many ingredients which should be taken into account as a part of the composting process. Any number of missing ingredient/s will define the value of the end result.
Inoculation of microbes can be incorporated into the initial composting mixing process, as a starter or boost to the degradation process, and if necessary, again either in the second stage after the heat phase, where certain digestive species could have been lost, or towards the end - around 21 days, ensuring that the Athletic microbial numbers are boosted and ready for action and interaction with soil and plant life.
In Commercial Agriculture, in-situ or in-field composting is important, mainly due to the limiting factor of available time, and costs associated with haulage of compost. The easiest and most cost effective way for Growers to tackle the composting process is to apply to the trash blanket a food source (for example: molasses, fish emulsion, kelp), and energy source (small amounts of nitrogen and phosphorouse (for example: mineral fertilizers), Moisture and the Microbial Inoculant RECYCLER COMPOST AND TRASH.

Increasing the biolgoical populations, organic matter and stored carbons lead to a decrease in the amount of chemical fertilizers that need be applied.
ORGANIC POLYMERS IN PULP AND PAPER MILLS: WASTE WATER SOLIDS AND SLUDGE DEGRADATION
Use RECYCLER COMPOSTING AND TRASH to assist with the biodegradation of molecular polymers. The inoculated microbes assist to alter these properties, thereby enabling other microbial populations to degrade the organic polymer fibers found in pulp and paper mill wast water ponds, tanks etc.
