Résumé ou Introduction
The goal for a sustainable agriculture is generally accepted and agreed upon worldwide. However, the progress and process remain difficult to define. Agricultural sustainability measures the relation of organic agricultural production to chemical production in many communities around the world. The move to organic agricultural production is an important step towards a more sustainable global agriculture.
This paper argues that organic food production can be enhanced by using a low-cost, organic fertilizer: compost. It advises on the creation and advantages of home-made compost piles, which improve soil structure, texture, aeration, and support the soil's water holding capacity. Composting thus contributes to the growth of healthier plants, which are more naturally resistant to diseases, insects, and pests, and can therefore be considered a real alternative to chemically grown plants.
