Compost is organic matter that has been broken down into simpler organic or inorganic matter in composting. This procedure recycles various organic materials otherwise regarded as waste products, and it creates a soil conditioner, a fertilizer, and a natural pesticide for soil.
Compost is abundant in nutrients, as it is used in gardens, landscaping, horticulture, urban agriculture, and organic farming. The compost itself is advantageous to the land in many ways. Compost is helpful for erosion control, land and stream recovery, wetland production, and landfill cover.
At the most fundamental level, the process of composting requires making a heap of wet organic matter such as leaves, grass, food scraps, and it involves patience, as the materials take time to break down into humus, which necessitates the presence of air.
