Description of the measure
Use of compost from different local resources (winery leftovers, manure, waste) to increase organic matter content
Comments on sustainability
The use of compost coming from agricultural residues and agrifood waste helps local stakeholders to close nutrients cycles and to enhance soil conditions (organic matter increasement, nutrients cycle and structure improvement, better water retentino, erosion decreasement, and biodiversity improvement). It may suppose economic savings against other fertilization methods.
