| Abstract/Contents: | Discusses the state of the compost industry as of June 2011, suggesting that "what is screwy is that composters have to jump through all kinds of regulatory hoops to place truthful nutrient and soil-benefit claims on their product labels." Details the potential implications of placing restrictions on compostable materials and provides a diagram for further clarification. Explains that "agricultural chemical companies warning farmers that they can't cut and sell hay off their farm or give away their nutrient-rich horse or cow manure to a local community garden flies in the face of economic and environmental sustainability." |
