Consider the following statement regarding the compositing method,
1. Indore process of compositing is aerobic and takes 3 – 4 months to decompose the waste.
2. Bangalore’s process of compositing is anaerobic and takes 2 – 3 months to decompose the waste.
3. An initial C/N ratio of 30 to 50 is optimal for compositing.
4. Lower C/N ratio leads to loss of nitrogen and slows down the rate of decomposition.
5. Higher C/N ratio leads to slowing down the rate of decomposition and digestion of organic matter incomplete.
