The use of compost and worm castings has long been known to reduce or
eliminate
the need for synthetic fertilizers and pesticides along with producing
nutrient
dense food.
We now have foolish government agencies wanting to regulate the use of
nature,
and worse yet fine those that simply state the obvious.
