Compost Fact Sheets for the Agriculture & Landsca ping Industries
The Compost Fact Sheets for the Agriculture & Landscaping Industries were developed by the Waste and Resources Action Programme (WRAP), in conjunction with The Landscape Institute, as part of its commitment to the development of sustainable markets for composted materials. Our team leader Phil Wallace contributed in this project, with lead contributions from our US associates Ron Alexander Associates.
These documents (recently published; Autumn 2003) are recommended to professionals in these industries, and can be downloaded as Acrobat .pdf files as listed below, by clicking on the icons on the right:
