Abstract
A simple formula for the preparation of synthetic compost to complement existing formulae for the preparation of compost based on horse manure of pig manure is presented, and most of the important factors involved in the preparation are discussed. A synthetic compost with 1000 kg of chopped wheat straw, 1000 kg chicken manure, 60 kg gypsum and over 5000 l water was prepared. The mixture produced 3300 kg of compost. At filling, this compost had a C/N ratio of 18 a pH of 8.6, and contained 2% N and 0.4% NH4. Instead of chicken manure other N-rich organic materials can be used.
