You will need get paid on all sides I think to succeed. Find some of larger gaited communities where people wouldn't mind paying a small fee to fill a container with yard waste and food scraps. Make sure customers are educated on what can and cannot go into the bin. Pay some guys to go pick up the waste weekly. You need brown material too. Rice straw? Shredded paper? Maybe someone will pay you to take it away? Selling the compost should be fairly easy to gardeners. There's so little exposed ground in the big cities like Manila and surrounding areas, so people need compost for container gardening. You will also need a small tractor with a front end loader to move and mix material, and a PTO to drive a chipper to grind material.

How does the soil reach 165 F? What makes it that hot?

[@nerdy1701]

The bacteria in the soil release heat as they break down the waste.

[@jackzavala2139]

I wonder if by now you have decided to vermicompost with bsfl? That would make more revenue opportunities for you.

There's an awful lot of plastic bags that look like they're making it into the process. Very disappointing. I've pulled so much trash out of Cedar Grove compost bags.

[@FUBARtractors]

I agree. So much plastic makes it thru to the end of the process. Before grinding it would be nice to have a way to remove most of it. I got several yards 3 years ago. I am still picking plastic bits out. Very disappointing.

[@tomhancock541]
