Abstract:
Bokashi composting is a safe, quick and convenient way to compost in your kitchen, garage or apartment, using microorganisms to anaerobically ferment all food waste (including meat and dairy). Since the process takes place in a closed system, insects and smell are controlled, making it ideal for urban or business settings. Compared to conventional composting, the bokashi method is quicker and easier, with compost usually ready to be integrated into your soil or garden in around two weeks. From scraps to soil, Bokashi Composting is the complete, step-by-step, do-it-yourself guide to this amazing process.
