PRODUCTION OF COMPOST, COMPOST PRODUCED THEREWITH AND RIDGING USING THE COMPOST

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide the production of compost for raising of seeding, which enables completely effective utilization of branches and leaves obtained by trimming of roadside trees, mowing of mountain bottom grass, etc., as nutrient humus. SOLUTION: This production comprises: a primary stage for cutting a mixture of branches and leaves obtained by trimming trees, heaping up the cut mixture and fermenting the heaped mixture to rot the leaves; and a secondary stage for subjecting the resulting mixture (obtained in the primary stage) of cut branches and rotten leaves to beating/crushing treatment with hammers 7, to crush coarse incompletely-fermented branches into a fibrous material. Thus, the objective compost which has a peat-moss-like entanglement structure consisting of a granular rotten leaf component and wood fiber and is optimum for raising of seeding, can be produced.
