SOME METHODS FOR COMPOSTING ORGANIC WASTE AND PRESERVING ENVIRONMENT AND SOIL BIODIVERSITY-A REVIEW.

The article reflects the problem of organic waste management and the composting methods used to improve the ecological situation of the environment. Some methods of composting organic waste of various origins are synthesized. Composting represents the process of decomposition and transformation of solid organic substances by microorganisms (mainly bacteria and fungi) into a stable material, which can be used (depending on the characteristics), in agriculture, instead of chemical fertilizers or in land improvement works (soil improvement). Only some methods of composting are characterized: the traditional method, worm cultivation and the method of effective microorganisms. All composting methods are welcome for agriculture because they solve complicated environmental problems: complete processing of organic waste, obtaining organic fertilizers and ecological agricultural production and improving the ecological situation.
