Compost is a vital component of sustainable agriculture and organic farming. It is created through the natural decomposition of organic matter, transforming waste into a nutrient-rich soil conditioner.
🌿 What Is Compost?
Composting involves collecting and layering organic waste—such as leaves, grass clippings, and kitchen scraps—and allowing it to naturally decompose over time into humus, a dark, crumbly, and fertile material.
🌱 Benefits of Composting:
-
Improves Soil Health: Enriches soil with essential nutrients
-
Enhances Water Retention: Reduces the need for frequent irrigation
-
Reduces Waste: Diverts organic waste from landfills
-
Supports Plant Growth: Ideal for gardens, lawns, and agriculture
-
Eco-Friendly: Minimizes the use of chemical fertilizers
🍂 Why Now?
Autumn is an excellent time to start composting—fallen leaves, garden trimmings, and other green waste provide the perfect raw material for building a healthy compost pile.
At Jakraya Sugar Ltd., we promote composting as part of our commitment to environmental stewardship and sustainable farming practices.
