Compost

Organic Fertilizer (City Compost):

It is made by accelerated bioconversion process under controlled conditions using remains of fruits, vegetables, food, and by product agro process industry.

Under this process the organic materials are transformed into highly stable hums like amorphous substances, which serve as lifeline for soil health.  City Compost is dark brown to blackish, free flowing, coarse powder. It is free from viable weed seeds, germs and insect larvae. It has sweet earthy like smell.

Organic Fertilizer (City Compost):

40 to 60% transformed carbohydrates, proteins, lignin’s in the form of humus, humins and fulvic compounds. This composition is an ideal source for nourishment of useful microorganism and almost all the mineral elements in the available organic form to provide balance nutrition for crop plants.

Some of the live microorganism have got insulation properties for the root rhizosphere to protect it from harmful pathogenic fungi, nematodes and bacteria.

Organic Fertilizer (City Compost): Special Properties

It ensures 3-way action in the Soil viz Physical, Chemical & Biological. Each one these provide many fold benefits to the soil plant ecosystem.

The Physical Properties:

# Ensures improvement of soil structure. 

# Better root aeration.

# Higher water retention.

# Improvement of soil health.

# Conditioning of clay & sandy soils.

The Chemical Properties:

# Provides all the micronutrients in the organic chelate form.

#  Higher nutrient retention and slow release feeding to the crop.

# Balanced crop nutrition results in forceful appearance of flowering & fruiting cycle.

The Biological Properties:

# Incorporate livingness to the soil due to presence of crores of useful microbes.

# Produces growth promoting substances and enzyme pre-cursers.

# Build up internal resistance level of plant against stress.

  Overall Effects:

# Better root zone development.

# Faster & Healthier plant growth.

# Increases crop yield & quality.

# Improvements in usage efficiency of chemical fertilizer nutrients.

How Organic Fertilizer (City Compost) Work In The Soil:

1. It promotes beneficial microorganism in the root rhizosphere.

2. It improves soil health by:

# converting residual organic matter into humified substances.

# helps in solubilizing unavailable mineral nutrients into readily available form.

# contributes directly by addition of humic components into the soil.

Organic Fertilizer is ideal for improvement of soil properties in terms of:

# porosity for easy ploughing and crop root expansion.

# moderate of bulk density t improve both sandy as well as clay soils.

# better transmission ability in the soil for (Conservation of water & nutrients),   

(temperature regulation), (higher microbial activity).

• It helps in suppression of plant root disease through pro-biotic effects.
• Also provide resistance to plant leaves against sucking insects.
• It absorbs nutrients from chemical fertilizer and release slowly for long term feeding of crops, thereby increasing the fertilizers usage efficiency.
• The higher biological activity helps in breakdown of toxic chemical residues. 
• It helps to increase enzymatic activity in plants to detoxify pesticide residues and also increase quality of the produce.
• It helps in reclamation of salt affected or degraded soils through multiple actions in the soil profile.
• It increases the quality, size and number of leaves, flowers and fruits. It is suitable for organic farming and is useful in sustainable agriculture.
