Why is seedling compost good for growing seeds?
Promotion of slow but steady growth and protection from soluble salts are reasons why seedling compost is good for growing seeds. Fertilizers can emphasize lush above-ground parts to the detriment of below-ground roots and seeds. Seedling compost tends to provide seeds and seedlings protection from the soluble salts in such necessary nutrients as calcium and magnesium compounds.

How are elements transferred from one environment to one another when using compost in farming?

When compost decays, it releases it's nutrients (elements) into the soil. As water runs though the compost, some of those elements wash into and remain in the soil and some may wash into streams or rivers. Those that remain in the soil may be utilized in farming by planting seeds/seedling directly into the enriched decomposed compost or soil, or by mankind moving the compost from it's decomposition area to a different growing (farming) environment.
