Fact Sheet: Soil Health - Compost & Soil Health Improvement

This ECN Fact Sheet compiles evidence from long-term field trials to show how repeated quality-assured compost applications from abundant green- and bio-waste materials support sustained soil health and farm productivity. Bringing the evidence together shows that the long-term use of compost builds soil structure and carbon content, improves water retention, increases biodiversity, enhances nutrient supply, preserves soil quality, and stabilises yields, which together strengthen farm resilience and soil health over time.
