104. COMPOSTERS.COM - Tips On Composting
Not only does composting sucessfully divert a significant portion of your family swaste Like painting, composting is more art than a rigid science,
http://www.composters.com/docs/tips.html
Tips on Composting WHY COMPOST AT ALL? Along with fuel efficiency, water conservation, and reduction in meat consumption, home composting is one of the most environmentally beneficial activities of modern society. Yard and food wastes make up approximately 30% of the waste stream in the US. Not only does composting sucessfully divert a significant portion of your family's waste stream from the landfill and water treatment facilities, it is a natural method of recycling organic materals into valuable humus. Finished compost is nutritious enough to use as a soil amendment, buffering the pH and helping to retain water in the soil. It can cool the soil's surface, and help mitigate erosion. Why buy topsoil when you create your own endless supply? Home composting also serves as an invaluable educational tool, teaching youngsters about conservation, the cycle of life, and inter-connectedness of the natural world. If it gets your child thinking about science or biology, or voluntarily participating in gardening and yard work, isn't it well worth the effort? HOW TO COMPOST Like death and taxes, composting happens - whether we want it to or not. Though all organic matter will eventually decompose (despite neglect), the trick is to get your pile to decompose as fast as you can fill it. The rate at which breakdown occurs depends on several factors: oxygenation, temperature, water content, particulate surface area, and the carbon:nitrogen ratio (see chart below). Like painting, composting is more art than a rigid science, and can at times require a bit of finesse and skill. However, with patience and a little practice, you can have ready-to-use humus for your garden in 6-8 weeks.

Introduction to Composting Composting is the decomposition of plant remains and other once-living materials to make an earthy, dark, crumbly substance that is excellent for adding to houseplants or enriching garden soil. It is the way to recycle your yard and kitchen wastes, and is a critical step in reducing the volume of garbage needlessly sent to landfills for disposal. It's easy to learn how to compost. Composting is not a new idea. In the natural world, composting is what happens as leaves pile up on the forest floor and begin to decay. Eventually, the rotting leaves are returned to the soil, where living roots can finish the recycling process by reclaiming the nutrients from the decomposed leaves. Composting may be at the root of agriculture as well. Some scientists have speculated that as early peoples dumped food wastes in piles near their camps, the wastes rotted and were terrific habitat for the seeds of any food plants that sprouted there. Perhaps people began to recognize that dump heaps were good places for food crops to grow, and began to put seeds there intentionally.

Welcome To The Crazy For Composting Web Quest
You and your fifth grade classmates have a big job to do! The new incoming fifth graders have absolutely no idea about vermi-composting in Room 109....yet! It will be your job to help them understand how and why we compost in 5th grade.
Task
Working with your computer partner, you will search several worm web sites, read composting books, and answer specific questions to create your own section to our homemade classroom book entitled "Vermi-composting...If A 10 Year Old Can Do It So Can You!" This book will be presented as an introduction to the incoming 5th graders.
Questions To Ponder
One of the following four questions will be assigned to you and your computer partner to search and generate a hard copy for our classroom book. 1.) What is composting? How does it take place? What kinds of materials can and can not be composted? 2.) Why compost? What difference can composting make in a classroom or even in a whole school? Are there different ways to compost? 3.) How do you go about setting up an indoor worm bin? What materials are needed? Can anyone do it?

Natural yard care
There are many things we can do in our yard to help reduce the use of chemicals and pesticides and still maintain a beautiful lawn or garden. Using good maintenance practices like watering weekly (rather than more often), using a mulching mower or using compost on the lawn in place of chemical fertilizer are all ways of caring for our lawn with nature in mind.
Yard trimmings
We can help our lawns thrive by leaving grass clippings on them after cutting. Grass clippings provide essential nutrients, add valuable organic material and reduce evaporation and the need to water. Grass clippings can supply 25 per cent of your lawn's nitrogen needs.
Backyard composting
Studies show that more than 40 per cent of what we send to the landfill is organic waste. Much of this can be composted, taking up less space in landfills, helping improve regional air quality and producing excellent soil conditioner.
Adding compost to lawns and gardens helps them retain moisture, requiring less watering. Applying compost to your lawn will also protect it, reducing the need for pesticides, which are harmful to the environment.

Composting Dead Poultry
Author: Eldridge R. Collins, Jr., Extension Agricultural Engineer Publication Number 442-037, November 1996
Introduction
Principles of Composting Poultry Composter Design Key Construction Features ... Summary
Introduction
An acceptable system of disposal for dead birds is essential to any well run poultry farm operation. Moreover, Virginia law requires that poultry producers have an approved means for disposing of dead birds. There are generally two categories of disposal problems: (1) Normal mortality, which is typically about 0.1 percent per day, but fluctuations up to 0.25 percent per day are not uncommon, and (2) Whole flock disposal. Research at the University of Maryland, and field application in other poultry states, have shown that normal mortality can be handled efficiently and safely by composting dead poultry. Composting is a natural process in which beneficial organismsbacteria and fungireduce and transform organic wastes into a useful end productcompostwhich can be used as a fertilizer and soil amendment. Although simple in concept and design, dead poultry composters require attention to detail and careful management. Effective July 1, 1992 properly constructed and properly managed dead bird composters are an acceptable method of handling normal flock mortality in Virginia. Composting is not recommended for whole flock disposal cases. Such cases require special permission and supervision from the Virginia State Veterinarian's Office.

    Further Information Recommended Reading Further Reading ... References To design a sustainable agricultural sector, the outputs from each production enterprise must become inputs to other enterprises just as in nature. Everything in the natural system is food to something else. We have not yet succeeded in mimicking this efficiency in our agricultural system. Many organic byproducts of agricultural production and processing are currently seen as "wastes" and thus become potential environmental hazards. Likewise, leaves, lawn clippings and restaurant food wastes have become problematical because their bulk fills limited landfill sites quickly. In some instances where the "output-becoming-input" model has been tried, we may have created other dangers. Currently wastes from poultry confinement systems are fed to other types of livestock although there is some public concern about this practice.
