Slide for Composting

1. COMPOSTING

2. 1) IMPORTANCE
COMPOST CAN BE PREPARED IN MANY WAYS BY
USING RAW MATERIALS LIKE FARM WASTE,
KITCHEN WASTE ,TOWN REFUSE ,ETC …THEY GO
UNDER AEROBIC AND ANAEROBIC PROCESSES.
IT PROVIDES MANY ESSENTIAL NUTRIENTS FOR
PLANT’S GROWTH AND THEREFORE, IS OFTEN
USED AS FERTILIZERS.
COMPOST ALSO IMPROVES SOIL STRUCTURE, SO
THAT SOIL CAN EASILY HOLD THE CORRECT
AMOUNT OF MOISTURE, NUTRIENT’S AND AIR.

3. 2) THREE TYPES OF METHOD
 AEROBIC COMPOSTING:-
AEROBIC COMPOSTING TAKES PLACE IN THE PRESENCE OF
AMPLE OXYGEN .IN THIS PROCESS, AEROBIC MICRO-
ORGANISMS BREAK DOWN MATTER AND PRODUCE
CARBON DIOXIDE (CO2),AMMONIA, WATER, HEAT AND
HUMUS, THE RELATIVELY STABLE ORGANIC END
PRODUCT.
 ANAEROBIC COMPOSTING:-
IN THIS METHOD OF COMPOSTING, DECOMPOSITION
OCCURS WHERE OXYGEN (O) IS ABSENT OR IS AVAILABLE
IN LIMITED SUPPLY.
 VERMICOMPOST:-
THIS PROCESS IS CARRIED OUT WITH THE HELP OF

4. 3) BENEFITS
• REDUCES THE NEED FOR CHEMICAL
FERTILIZERS.
• COMPOST INCREASES SOIL MOISTURE.
• IT PREVENTS SOIL EROSION.
• IT AIDS PLANT GROWTH.
• COMPOSTING IMPROVES PLANT
NUTRITION.
• IT CAN REDUCE PLANT MORTALITY
RATES.
• COMPOSTING REDUCES WASTE
• HELPS PLANT GROWTH BY BALANCING
SOIL DENSITY
