Managing organics through composting is catching on across the Prairies:

• Municipalities are extending the life of their landfills and creating rich soil amendments for civic parks, flower displays, sportsfields, and golf courses—and for sale to their residents!
• Livestock producers are finding that composted manure is much easier to handle, does not spread weed seeds, improves soil texture, and retains nutrients in the soil!
• Businesses that previously paid to have their organic waste hauled away are managing their materials on-site, producing a valuable by-product!
• Research across the Prairies is increasing our understanding of the best ways to produce and use compost in our unique yearly climate cycle!
 
Composting can be the key for turning a waste management problem into a resource management opportunity!
