Fletcher Sims Compost

Editorial Reviews
Book Description
Covers the optimal conditions for converting plant and animal wastes into compost by balancing the correct ratio of raw materials, using the correct microorganisms and moisture content, proper pile or windrow construction, and efficient mixing. Fletcher Sims has elevated the "art" of good composting to a "science." Explains not only the complexities of commercial-scale compost production, but also the benefits of the use of this gentle fertilizer. A book that really draws you in, it is a combination of a biography and technical guide.
