Quality Composted Soil Amendments and Wood Mulches
BioCarbon Soil assists Renew Organics and Tamworth Regional Council to produce quality Composted Soil Amendments (CSA) and Wood Mulches at 123 Forest Road, North Tamworth. We monitor the process, sample every batch, and review the results of laboratory testing to ensure compliance and to understand the best uses for the products. We are also available to provide advice on how to use the CSA and mulch to achieve the best results.
The products that are available include:
- Composted Soil Conditioner (fine and black)
- Coarse Wood Mulch (chunky and woody)
- Fine Wood Mulch (small sticks and wood fines)
The Tamworth CSA is a matured compost that has undergone at least 6 weeks of continuously aerated composting and at least 6 weeks of maturation in windrows. During the composting process the organics are turned at least 5 times and temperatures of more than 55 degrees centigrade are measured after each turn to ensure pasteurisation (absence of viable weed seeds and suppression of pathogens). The soil conditioner has passed a 15mm screen.
Total nutrient content of the Composted Soil Conditioner is typically: Carbon 18%, Nitrogen 1.7%, Phosphorus 0.7%, Potassium 0.7%, Calcium 3.5% and Magnesium 0.5% (of dry weight), as with all composts, some of these nutrients release more slowly than others. As with all composts some of these nutrients release more slowly than others.
