Compost Production & Application on Rangelands

Compost Production & Application on Rangelands

Join us in Ocate, NM and learn both how to produce compost, then about organic amendment application for rangeland soil health. Experts from Reunity Resources will demonstrate the Aerated Static Pile (ASP) composting system. ASP is a no-turn process that uses the naturally occurring microbial population in the feedstocks along with the appropriate oxygen supply and moisture to rapidly mature and age the organic waste into a valuable soil amendment. ASP is a useful method for agriculture producers or rural area residents who want to dispose of organic waste without taking it to the landfill. In addition, participants will learn about compost & biochar applications on rangelands as well as a couple soil health field monitoring techniques. Quivira Coalition staff will share preliminary results from case studies of compost, biochar and bale grazing applied at other ranches.
