Compost (/ˈkɒmpɒst/ or /ˈkɒmpoʊst/) is organic matter that has been decomposed and recycled as a fertilizer and soil amendment. Compost is a key ingredient in organic farming. At the simplest level, the process of composting simply requires making a heap of wetted organic matter known as green waste (leaves, food waste) and waiting for the materials to break down into humus after a period of weeks or months. Modern, methodical composting is a multi-step, closely monitored process with measured inputs of water, air, and carbon- and nitrogen-rich materials. The decomposition process is aided by shredding the plant matter, adding water and ensuring proper aeration by regularly turning the mixture. Worms and fungi further break up the material. Bacteria requiring oxygen to function (aerobic bacteria) and fungi manage the chemical process by converting the inputs into heat, carbon dioxide and ammonium. The ammonium (NH4) is the form of nitrogen used by plants. When available ammonium is not used by plants it is further converted by bacteria into nitrates (NO3) through the process of nitrification.
Humanure is the third full length album by deathgrind band Cattle Decapitation. Gabe Serbian, Justin Pearson and Robert Bray of The Locust make guest appearances on this album, along with former member Scott Miller. A music video was produced for "Reduced to Paste".
The cover was deemed grotesque by many retailers and they refused to carry it unless it was changed. The cover was edited, removing the cow, and leaving just a barren wasteland.
How to Make Humanure Compost with a Composting Toilet
In this film we take a tour of Greg and Lisa's composting toilet setup and see how they've been safely composting and using their humanure on their veggie garden for over four years.

We used a simple composting toilet system for a whole year (and here's how it worked out)
Some years ago I conducted an experiment to see if we could use a composting toilet system in our house. I had read Joseph Jenkins' book "The Humanure Handbook" (https://amzn.to/2Ko8bm8) and decided it made a lot of sense. Here's how that easy composting toilet system worked out.

Is There a Way to Vermicompost Humanure Safely?
This Q&A is pulled from a collection of questions posed to me by students of my Online Permaculture Design Course (PDC). Learn more with my free four-part Masterclass series, here:
https://www.discoverpermaculture.com/a/12454/e3i2ci3L
Question:
Would processing humanure in a worm farm system be feasible? Do you know of examples where this is being done? What special considerations for a humanure vermicompost system do you feel deserver highlighting or special consideration?

HUMANURE Composting System at an ECOVILLAGE
Everybody has to shit, but in our culture and economy, human waste is nothing but a liability and potential health hazard. And what's crazier is that we mix it with our drinking water and create an even bigger problem.
Well, at Dancing Rabbit Ecovillage, we don't have elaborate plumbing and water systems to cart all our human waste away to be treated in a plant or dumped directly into the local river or ocean. We keep all our human waste on site, where it becomes a benign yet beneficial resource for agriculture. We not only save millions in infrastructure expenses, but we save water, we don't pollute our drinking water, and we end up with a valuable soil amendment.
