USCC is working to increase compost use in non-agricultural sectors, with potential growth areas including turf applications such as golf courses and athletic fields. However, barriers to adoption remain. The key benefits of compost use in those end markets include soil stabilization, water retention, and erosion control, which translate to financial savings, operational efficiency, and less maintenance.
A new USCC compost use campaign is working toward expanding non-agricultural compost markets and providing practical tools for decision-makers in government and business sectors. The campaign will highlight the connections between soil health, site infrastructure, and economic development. Educational toolkits and a resource-filled digital platform will be used to move decision-makers from consideration to action to increase compost use.
