GREATER Sydney Local Land Services hosted a crowd of more than 60 growers, industry representatives and university students at their final Next Gen Compost Trial Field Day in Richmond last Friday.
Funded through the NSW EPA's Waste Less Recycle More initiative, the project was aimed at unlocking the benefits of recycled organics in horticulture and was run in partnership with NSW Farmers and the University of Technology, Sydney.
Participants were given a first hand look at the latest trial crops which contained a variety of compost and non-compost soil mixes.
