Compost is organic matter that has been decomposed into humus. Compost is very rich in nutrients and is a very effective fertilizer. Compost also improves moisture retention, reduces soil compaction, and moderates soil temperature. Compost is well composted and does not have an offensive odor, meaning it can be readily applied in residential contexts.
