Hi all,
Happy New Year.
I've stopped looking at compost as a nitrogen source - I think of it as a 
source of potassium primarily and use nitrogen fixing legumes as a cover 
crop to boost nitrogen: red clover, field peas....In rotation these provide 
very significant levels of nitrogen to the succeeding crops.  Its nice to 
see that we can now get organic cover crops and gmo-free rhyzobium 
innoculants to boose nitrogen fixation on new fields where 
clovers/peas/beans haven't grown before.
