Abstract:
... Accelerated composting is becoming popular globally. This has led to a commercial accelerated compost (AC); OBD-plus. This study, therefore, evaluated the availability of nutrients from this AC for maize (Zea mays) production in two common soil types; Alfisol and Ultisol. The AC at the rates of 30, 60, 90, 120, 150 kg N/ha, mineral fertilizer (NPK 15–15-15) and conventional compost (CC) at the rat ...

Abstract:
... The application of compost to calcareous soils by farmers is a well-established practice and has been shown to improve yields. However, incorporation of biochar and mixture of biochar and compost into calcareous soils is a relatively novel concept for improving soil quality and yield since calcareous soils comprise a large scale of soils worldwide. The objective of this study was to determine the ...

Abstract:
... Large quantities of rice straw are produced annually in India and the majority of it is burnt in the fields, leading to environmental pollution and loss of carbon (C) and essential nutrients. It is imperative to manage rice residues and by-products to derive benefits for soil health and environment conservation. We studied the decomposition of rice straw (RS), rice-straw-derived biochar and compos ...

Abstract:
... In South America, a high percentage of urban waste streams are not well managed, implying associated health and environmental risks. In Ecuador, around 2.7 million tons of municipal solid wastes (MSW) are generated annually, with 80 percent located in urban areas. Correct management and hygienic and ecological issues from these increased quantities of waste is the responsibility of municipalities ...
