CT-Compost

City Compost is a scientifically processed municipal organic waste compost, converted into a safe, stable, and nutrient-rich manure. It is further enriched with select lifelized microbes chosen specifically for phosphorus release, potassium mobilization, and rapid organic matter breakdown.

City Compost – Urban Organic Manure (25 KG)

Tagline

Cost-effective, microbially enriched compost from processed city organic waste.

Product Overview

This product is ideal for large-scale farming, landscaping, public gardens, parks, and urban/peri-urban agriculture.

Microbial Consortia in City Compost

• Compared to PROM, City Compost is more focused on decomposition and P–K availability:
• Phosphorus-solubilizing bacteria (PSB)
• Unlock fixed and insoluble phosphates typically present in urban compost substrates.
• Potassium-mobilizing bacteria
• Help make non-exchangeable potassium available in soils with city compost application.
• Actinomycetes (cellulolytic and ligninolytic strains)
• Highly efficient in breaking down woody, fibrous, and municipal organic residues and improving compost quality.
• Trichoderma viride
• Supports suppression of certain soil-borne pathogens and improves root health.
• A smaller but supportive background presence of: Nitrogen-fixing bacteria (helpful in soils with low native N).
• The microbes are lifelized, ensuring long shelf life and quick activation when the product is applied and watered.

Recommended Uses

• Field crops (broadacre)
• Vegetables
• Fruit orchards
• Lawns, landscapes, parks
• Avenue plantations
• Organic conversion programs

Dosage & Application

• Standard agricultural dose: 25 kg per acre as basal manure.

Field Crops (Paddy, Wheat, Pulses, Oilseeds, Millets)

• Apply 25 kg/acre of City Compost during main land preparation, along with regular FYM if used.
• Incorporate into soil for best contact with microbes and organic matter.

Vegetables (Open Field)

• 25 kg/acre before bed formation.
• For nurseries: 10–15% City Compost in nursery beds or trays.

Orchards & Fruit Trees

• 2–3 kg per young tree, 3–4 kg per mature tree, mixed in the basin area soil.
• Ideal before monsoon and/or before flowering.

Lawns, Gardens & Landscapes

• 2 kg per sq. metre as a top dressing, lightly raked in and watered.
• For new lawn establishment, mix compost into top layer of soil before sowing turf grass.
• Avenue Trees & Roadside Plantations
• 5–2 kg per planting pit, mixed well with soil before planting.

Key Benefits of City Compost

• Economical organic manure with microbial enrichment.
• Improves structure, porosity, and moisture retention of soils.
• Enhances P and K availability in soils receiving city compost.
• Aids in recycling city biomass into agriculture in a safe way.
• Supports urban organic farming, landscaping, and green belts.
