Benefits of Organic Compost

  • Stimulates soil health and improves crop production.
  • Maintains food for beneficial microbes to assure the proper decomposition of crop residue.
  • Provides organic matter, which is the governor of moisture for the soil.
  • Water efficiency because organic matter holds five (5) times its weight in water.
  • Plants are then less stressed from the heat and drought during times of extreme temperatures.
  • Increasing organic matter will improve soil tilth, making it more productive and easier to work into the soil.
  • Compost will loosen clay soils allowing better root penetration, improved air & water movement which means better nutrient availability for crops.

See What People Say

We were all appreciating the hard work going into moving all the composted material around. Do not hesitate to do business with this respectable company! Loui even followed up with me to make sure everything went smooth with picking it up.

– Michael Stahulak

I had compost spread on top of a hill on my field that was lacking soil nutrients, and the crop was not growing well. The following year, there was a significant increase in my soybean yield, the beans were all the way up the stalk and the beans were taller. The compost works very well conditioning the soil along with its added benefits to the crop. I plan to spread compost on the remaining part of my field.

Matt Busse – Busse Farms, Waterman IL.

The compost is a clean material that is consistent and easy to spread with my manure spreader. I feel it is a great input to use as part of my Nutrient Management Plan. It is the least expensive input available to me , and I have recommended Midwest Material Management’s compost to other farmers.

Applying just 2″ of compost in lieu of the traditional 6″ of topsoil, which is typically of unknown origin and quality, reduces project material cost by up to 2/3! The compost will provide additional benefits as mentioned earlier on this page, that some commercial topsoil just cannot offer.
