Processed manures sustain silage corn yield with amendment‐specific soil and forage response
Abstract In semiarid western US dairy systems, field evidence remains limited on whether processed manure products can sustain silage corn (Zea mays L.) productivity and improve soil health. A field experiment conducted in Logan, UT, during 2021–2022 compared compost, vermicompost, Sedron (a thermally and mechanically processed dairy manure), dissolved

Compost Politics: Experimenting with Togetherness in Vermicomposting [PDF]
AbstractEmerging from the question of how to live together with our planet, more-than-human approaches to interspecies relations have often presented ‘cozy’ versions of conviviality (Whatmore 2002; Haraway 2008; Hinchliffe 2010). This was usually set against a (supposedly) exclusionary politics of nature, in a move that betrayed a still largely ...

Insights into the Microbiological Safety of Vermicompost and Vermicompost Tea Produced by South African Smallholder Farmers [PDF]
Feedstock used in the production of vermicompost (VC) and vermicompost tea (VCT) may harbour various pathogenic bacteria responsible for a number of animal and human diseases worldwide. The identification and characterisation of such pathogenic organisms is necessary for assessing the safety of these products.
