Contribution to plant, soil, and soil food web health, fiscal responsibility, and sustainable use of local resources are reasons why compost is helpful to farmers. The dark-colored, fresh-smelling, nutrient-rich organic matter can be made on-site and therefore saves farmers money and time.

What do farmers use compost for?
Soil amendments, fertilizers, mulches, and rejuvenators are the uses that farmers have for compost. Compost is the dark-colored, fresh-smelling, nutrient-rich organic material that results from the human-intervened or Mother Nature-guided breakdown of carbon- and nitrogen-rich recyclables. It occupies a particularly important place on organic farms where inputs and resources must be local, natural, and on-site.
How much of their crops do framers put in the compost?
A range from none to anything that cannot be marketed or get used on-site is the quantity of crops that farmers put in compost. The answer must be situated within a specific agro-industrial and geographic context. For example, non-organic farmers will dispose of crops that cannot be sold off-site or used on-site in a number of ways, including controlled burns, whereas organic farmers will compost everything that is not diseased, sold off-site or used on-site.
