Hands-on Composting Training

This workshop will give you hands-on training at a compost production site that utilizes the Aeromaster Composting System. Visits to the compost site will allow you to practice the composting methods taught in the classroom in a real work environment. This hands-on experience will increase your confidence level and give you the knowledge base you need to produce profitable compost, including humus compost. 

Here are a few composting methods you will practice at the compost site:

• Getting started, feedstock synchronization
• Combining rows
• Evaluating a previously built row
• Building windrows
• Monitoring moisture, temperature, and CO₂ levels
• Row turning, addition of water & microbial inoculants
• Daily management
• Sampling rows for lab analysis

Whether you’re a farmer or commercial composter, this three day training course will give you the hands-on experience and in-depth knowledge you need to make Humus Compost, the highest quality compost on the market.

If you’re a farmer, you will be amazed at how you increase your yields and decrease your fertilizer costs.

If you’re a commercial composter, you will learn to make high value, highly marketable compost and you’ll learn how to do it cheaper and faster than your competitors.

The goal of the production of Humus Compost through the Aeromaster Composting System (ACS) is not the elimination of a waste stream but the production of compost that will give the soil, and ultimately the plant, the nutrients it needs to thrive.

Focusing on results in the soil instead of waste disposal is a paradigm shift for the composting industry. This composting course will allow you to rub shoulders with the experts who engineered and mastered this technology.

By the end of this training you will have seen each stage of the Aeromaster Composting System and be able to determine if you want to make Humus Compost.

These sessions will be highly interactive and will also include information on production troubleshooting and tips on increasing compost quality without increasing cost.
