Microbial conversion of food wastes for biofertilizer production with thermophilic lipolytic microbes (2007, unknown): “Thus, composting of food waste is attracting considerable attention because it would significantly reduce the amount of waste and the product can be used as compost or biofertilizer which can be handled, stored, transported and applied to the field without adversely affecting the environment [6].”
ARBUSCULAR MYCORRHIZAL FUNGI AND SOIL AGGREGATION (2008, background): “The effects of compost additions on soil structure may be shortlived although these effects are generally positive on structural properties (Debosz et al. 2002).”
Response of soil microbial communities to compost amendments (2006, background): “The addition of good quality composts may increase global microbial biomass and enhance soil enzyme activity (Albiach et al., 2000; Perucci et al., 2000; Debosz et al., 2002), but little is known about the specific modifications received by the different components of the microbial communities (Kiik”
