Definition

Compost is organic matter that has been decomposed and recycled into a nutrient-rich soil amendment. Made from plant residues, food scraps, and manure, it improves soil structure, fertility, and moisture retention, supporting healthy plant growth.

Importance in feed structure

Compost is used as a plant fertiliser and to improve the physical, chemical and biological properties of soil. One of the main benefits of applying compost to farmland is the increase of organic matter content and its multifaceted benefits to soil health and fertility.
