It’s happened to all of us. You slip on an old jacket you haven’t worn in years and surprise! – you find a crinkled $20 bill stuffed into one of the pockets.
Or a clerk rings through an item at a store and tells you there’s an extra 25% off the ticketed price. Who doesn’t love that?
Now, imagine someone walking onto your farm tomorrow and revealing you’re sitting on a hidden gold mine! The best part: You already own the rights!
Having the right tool for the job makes all the difference.
If you’ve ever undertaken a task or tried to fix something without the proper equipment, you know how frustrating it can be. Well, add costly to list if you’re a farmer looking to buy an industrial compost turner for the first time and you’re not sure what to look for.
Make the right choice and your composting runs with the precision of a Swiss watch. Miss the mark and you can likely count on a ton of problems that will cost you time, money and energy.

There are many benefits of humus compost to the soil. As a simple reminder, we like to use the acronym “DIP ‘N’ CHEW”
D isease suppression — humus compost has a healing effect on plants and a cleansing action on soils.
I ncreases plant yield
P orosity increased in the soil-has more air voids than typical soils.
N utrient retention — magnetic charge from high CEC holds nutrients longer.
C ompaction reduction — it makes soil spongy and enables it to spring back.
H elps reduce dependence on chemicals — promotes healthier plants.
E rosion reduced-disperses the force of raindrops.
W ater retention increased — like a sponge holding water.
It is an accepted fact that fertilizer can help grow better crops. Many studies have been conducted to determine the point of diminishing returns. However, with escalating fertilizer prices, paradigms change. So how much should we apply? Are there products other than high analysis NPK blends that we should consider, such as manure or compost?
