| Abstract: | The present study was conducted to visualize characteristics of pressmud and methods of composting to produce an organic compost. Pressmud is a byproduct of sugar industry which mainly contains organic matter like fibers and lignin from sugarcane. There are several factors that affect the rate of composting, viz C:N ratio, moisture, temperature, pH and oxygen percentage in the composting pile. Methods of composting include windrow method, static pile method, enclosed vessel method and vermicomposting. The composting methods mainly focuses on degradation of organic matter by maintaining favorable environmental conditions and supply of sufficient oxygen to maintain an aerobic conditions in the composting pile. Organic compost produced from the above said methods are having huge advantages over the chemical fertilizers. Organic compost provides most of the macro and micro nutrients to the soil and also improves water holding capacity of soil. Long term usage organic compost helps the soil to maintain its fertility, improves the properties of soil and also reduces soil erosion by increasing the water holding capacity. |
